A Spooky Holiday and an Upcoming Stand Down

Happy Halloween! We are hard at work preparing for the upcoming Stand Down being held in Dallas, Texas on November 7th. With an estimated turn out of 400-500 homeless veterans (plus more for dependents), it is looking to be the largest Stand Down that we are serving all year! With that being said, we need you to send in any last donations that you are working on as soon as possible. We will weave in any loose ends and wet block all garments. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us. We appreciate your continued support and wish you a positively frightful Halloween!


Make Your Donations a Slam Dunk!

We at T.H.R.I.V.E. Association have always strived to provide crafted garments for our underprivileged veterans in styles and colors that they prefer. And while we encourage all of our crafting donors to mainly make their garments in blacks, blues, browns, greys, and the ever popular camouflage, we all sometimes yearn to do some fun colorwork. So, the million dollar question is, “How can we add some bright colors to our garments that our veterans would still love to wear?” Sports teams!

We posted earlier about football team colors and now we’ve made a handy basketball team color chart to make it even easier to find some more combinations that can appeal to our wonderful veterans and those whom they support. Please remember that Stand Downs happen year-round across the country, so we always need your help and donations to provide the vital supplies and services that our vets and their dependents need at these events. Thank you for your continued support and interest. Happy crafting!
