Helping Children in Africa One Square at a Time
Charity Feature: Knit-a-Square |
|
| Each month, we feature a charity that helps others through knitting and crochet. This month's charity is Knit-a-Square.com, which asks knitters and crocheters around the world to help provide warmth to South African orphans. Knit-a-Square is a nonprofit organization that began in October 2008 and provides blankets for children orphaned by the HIV/AIDS epidemic and extreme poverty in South Africa.The organization works in association with Hotel Hope, a charity that provides food, shelter and love to children infected with or affected by HIV/AIDS. |  | | |
