T.H.R.I.V.E. Association Update Amid the Quarantine

Published: May 15, 2020  ~   0

We know that this is a difficult time for everyone across our great nation. Quarantine can be tough, not just for our wonderful volunteers and staff, but also for the vulnerable communities that we serve. Although we are living in difficult and uncertain times right now, T.H.R.I.V.E. Association continues to strive to meet the needs of the homeless veterans and their dependents across the United States. 

Although quarantine has changed a great deal of our daily lives, T.H.R.I.V.E. Association is still going strong and collecting donations to be distributed to the veterans and their dependents via the Veterans’ Administration. If you are located in the DFW area and have any donations for T.H.R.I.V.E. Association and/or need more yarn, we would be happy to do curbside pick-up and/or drop-off additional yarn. Please call our office at (469) 427-9654 to arrange a time and location. For those located outside of the DFW area, we are still accepting donations via post as well as monetary donations through our website.

We hope to be able to knit together with our crafting groups soon. Until then, we wish you and your loved ones safety and well-being. We will continue to keep you updated and provide free patterns and information in the interim. Please feel free to contact us with any questions that you have.

Please Stay Safe

Due to the rising health concerns for our volunteers, staff, and the community which we serve, T.H.R.I.V.E. Association will be putting ALL of our knitting groups on hold until further notice. We ask that you stay safe and follow what our global health experts have advised – proper hand washing protocol and self-quarantine however possible to prevent the further spread of the COVID-19 virus.

To help combat cabin fever among our crafters in this time of self-isolation, we would like to share a free simple pattern from Red Heart Yarns. Please follow this link to view the Daydream Hat pattern.

If you are a veteran or a dependent of a veteran and need our help, our office is still open and will do our best to aid you. Please feel free to reach out- even if you just need to talk in this dark time: (469) 427-9654. Please remember that we are here for you.
