Sewing for Foster Children Project
March 17, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
CBD is looking for volunteers for our annual “sewing of bags for Foster Children.”
Last year, we made and donated to 43 cloth bags to the Rhode Island Department of Children & Families (DCYF). Social workers give the bags to children when they are removed from their home or moved to a new foster home. The bags replace plastic garbage bags that would normally be given to the child to pack possessions.
The Tikkun Olam Committee is requesting donations of travel-sized toiletries, to add to the completed tote bags. A bin will be available at CBD for those items.
All fabric and supplies are provided.
We do need: sewers with a sewing machine, ironing boards and irons.
When: Sunday, March 17, 2024, 1:00-4:00 pm at Congregation Beth David
It is always a fun afternoon, schmoozing among friends and helping those children in need.
