St. Nic’s Thursday Craft Group have been busy and generous crafters recently. They made an astonishing 45 blankets and 15 teddy bears for the “Wheelchairs For Kids” Organization. Isn’t that something? Each child that needs a wheelchair gets one each along with accessories, such as knee blankets and toys. There have been some very talented ladies with amazing skills that have put this together and made them all for these children. Their hearts have gone into these and it truly shows. The craft group’s generosity is sure to be felt by those who receive these blessed gifts.
“Wheel Chairs For Kids”
The charity, “Wheelchairs For Kids”, is on a mission to provide wheelchairs, knee blankets and soft toys to children all over the world who would otherwise be without access to adequate wheelchairs. If that wasn’t enough, they also encourage the more senior members of society to get involved in the manufacturing process, creating a sense of community and camaraderie. It is truly heart-warming to know there are charities out there making a difference. Already, they have supplied 50,000 wheelchairs to kids in over 90 countries! If you want to know more about the charity, their website is: https://wheelchairsforkids.org/
The Craft Group
The craft group itself gathers on a Thursday morning at 10am here at St. Nicholas Church. During this time they come together to create various items for all sorts of reasons, especially for supporting charities. Not only do they make things, but they connect as a group, chatting, drinking tea and coffee…and sometimes enjoying a bit of cake. These ladies surely have big hearts and lovely attitudes. Their actions set a good example of how to be light and salt in our community. It is a privilege to have them as part of the St Nicholas community here in Australind. If you want to get involved, you’re more than welcome to come on a Thursday.
Thank you, craft group, for your continued kindness and generosity!
