We have partnered with the Tarrant County Jail to teach the incarcerated women to knit and crochet. Our goal is to give these wonderful ladies valuable skills which they can take with them through life, while also having them help us in our mission to provide handmade goods for our homeless military veterans and those whom they support. So far, we are off to a fantastic start!
These sweet ladies are really enjoying the class and in only a month of meeting for 2 hours twice a week, they have already made significant progress. In fact, they are already working on their first scarves for our veterans! We are so very proud!
In closing this blog, we’d like to also offer a very special thank you to Captain Lonnie T. Dunham of the Tarrant County Jail for his kindness and his perseverance in helping us (in more ways than we can count) and those under his care. We are truly grateful for all of his amazing support.
