So what are we doing?
1. This very Sunday (3/14) several people will be working on making PURPLE baby hats, and Shannon will be collecting them. The purple hats will be given to babies as part of a parent education initiative to prevent shaken-baby syndrome. PURPLE is an acronym to help parents identify and cope with the normal phase of really frustrating crying that newborns go through.
2. For people interested in supporting P/Hop, Often Awesome, or working more directly with cancer patients, we can get you connected.
3. For people who want to sell crafts at MomArt (Genesis Home benefit) or make items for a raffle table (animal shelter benefit), smaller interest groups will form.
4. We’ll try a Habitat Work Day this summer (and/or a fence building day). We will need an organizer to help get this rolling.
5. We’ll do another project for a children’s charity this summer. This might-could be connected to a Haiti benefit, or it might not. I’d love to have a couple of people organize this by choosing a project and coming up with some specific suggestions for ways to kick it off.
