Community outreach
Tonight I went to my monthly twin club meeting. This meeting is all about giving back to our community. As mom's of twins a lot of our members either spent time in the NICU or know someone who has. So we made fleece tie blankets to be given to patients in NICU. Several women got together prior to tonight's meeting to cut prep the fleece (cut into smaller sizes and fringe it). Tonight we tied 94 blankets. We also collected food for the food bank of the church where we meet and had a raffle of some pretty awesome door prizes. To be able to enter the raffle, one could donate food or buy tickets. Money raised will help club members in need during the holiday season. I am honored to be a part of this club. It is definitely a club that gives back. They gave to the New Orleans and Gulfcoast clubs after Katrina and Rita.
