The Joyous feeling
Can you imagine the feeling you will get when you walk down the street and happen to pass someone wearing a pair of mittens you designed and donated? In advance I would like to thank all involved for their help, their time, and their donations.
Without your support this program wouldn't be where it's at today.

Testimonials
Heather Brown
Hi BrendaÂ
Can’t wait to hear what’s going on. Having a great time making mittens and hats!
Terri Wilson
I've mastered the art of the crocheted mitten and hope to have a batch for next year's baskets.
Carol Frizzell
Wonder if trading patterns would be of interest? I recall the lady I sat beside last Fall at our gathering seemed in awe of the variety.
Valerie Lynds - New Legacy Centre Coordinator
Two WalMart gift cards were delivered to us a few weeks ago that your group had donated to the Lions Club for the Christmas Basket. It was explained that they were purchased with the intentional use for personal care items.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for passing them on to New Legacy Centre! As part of our Food Bank supplies, women are sometimes looking for such items and they are in short supply on our shelves. We will use the gift cards to purchase such items as deodorant, sanitary products, panty liners etc. for our shelves.
Again - Thank you so very much for your generosity!
