Meet Us at DFW Fiber Fest 2026!
Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E. Association family! We’ll be at DFW Fiber Fest on August 29-30! The event is being held on August 28-30 at the Irving Convention Center in Las Colinas. For those unfamiliar, the event is a great opportunity to meet fellow crafters, learn valuable crafting skills, shop unique materials and tools, and also to meet with your local non-profits, like us at T.H.R.I.V.E. Association! We’ll have a booth set up to share our mission of benefiting our nation’s underprivileged military veterans and their dependents with our local crafting community and we will also be collecting your beautifully handcrafted hats, scarves, mittens, etc. and yarn for the upcoming Stand Downs! Come on down and check us out!
Thank You, Warm Up America!
Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E. Association family. We want to offer our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing community partner Warm Up America! for their ongoing support for our mission to help end homelessness among our nation’s veterans and their dependents. We are so grateful and we couldn’t do it without you!
We’re Shipping out our Handcrafted Gifts
Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E. Association family! It’s that time of year when our larger partners’ Stand Downs are being held. They have larger homeless veteran communities that they serve, all of whom need our lovingly handcrafted gifts to see them through the colder temperatures. Getting the gifts to their destinations comes dear and we need your monetary support to help us to accomplish our mission. If you are able, please make a tax-deductible monetary donation. Shipping and delivering our gifts costs several hundred dollars per Stand Down, so every dollar really helps us accomplish our goals.
Stand Downs are very effective at helping veterans recover from homelessness, and we love supporting them in their efforts. We have had several veterans who have attended Stand Downs in the past, received our gifts, and are now recovered sufficiently to volunteer/donate to our cause. Let’s keep that momentum going! Our goal is to end homelessness among our nation’s veterans and their dependents and we can’t do it without your support!
