Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E. Association family! It’s June and we’re surrounded by summer warmth, but let’s not slow down on crafting the warm garments needed by our nation’s underprivileged military veterans and their dependents throughout the United States.

If you would like to donate a hat, scarf, lap blanket, or other handcrafted garment to our cause, please remember that the dear veterans and their dependents prefer dark colors (e.g. blue, black, green, grey, and all-time favorite, camouflage). If you would like to knit, crochet, or sew a garment in a brighter color, red or deep purple are always popular bright colors. We cannot emphasize this important point enough: please do not use sparkly or overly decorative yarns and fabrics. While they have their place, they are simply inappropriate for the veterans and their dependents (including children because of choking hazards).

If you are not a crafter, but would like to help, there are still many ways to support our cause! Please consider donating materials and/or making a monetary donation to help us cover the costs of materials, shipping, and overhead.

If you have donations and are in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, we are still continuing our policy of curbside pickup. Please contact us to schedule a pickup. If you reside outside the DFW area and would like to make an in-kind donation, you can ship your donations to us here in Dallas. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us. Remember, even one lovingly handcrafted hat or scarf can make a huge difference in the life of an underprivileged veteran or their dependent(s)!

Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E. Association family! We hope that everyone is enjoying this beautiful May weather. However, just because it is getting warmer outside does not mean that we are not crafting up a storm for our cause. Our homeless veterans and their dependents are always at the forefront of our minds here at T.H.R.I.V.E. Association HQ.

If you would like to craft a gift for our cause but need inspiration, please peruse our blog at https://thrivevets.org/index.php/blog/ where you can find free patterns as well as awesome tips and tricks. 

Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E. Association family! It’s starting to heat up here in Texas, but let’s not let that stop us from crafting the warm garments that are needed for our nation’s underprivileged military veterans and their dependents throughout the United States.
