Little Dresses for Haiti
Wednesday, July 28th, 2010Would you like to make a difference to a girl in Haiti? You can do this by donating pillowcases to the Little Dresses for Haiti project. Donated pillowcases may be placed in the basket located near the information table at the back of the sanctuary.
These pillowcases will be turned into dresses by local volunteers. The finished dresses are taken periodically to Haiti by area residents who are traveling to Haiti on various types of mission trips.
If you would like instructions to make the dresses yourself, see Janet Mauck or send her e-mail at janetm@purdue.edu. You also can join Little Dresses for Haiti on Facebook to get more information and find out when periodic group dress-making sessions are held.
