"Make a Pillowcase, Make a Difference."
Every pillowcase can make a difference in your community. A pillowcase can provide comfort for a cancer patient, hope for a foster child, encouragement for a battered woman, or beauty for a nursing home resident.
"So far I have committed to giving away over 3000 pillowcases... I am sure you won’t let me make them all myself, will you? Of course you wouldn’t!!! I have already received a couple dozen from you and expect to see many more over the coming months."
Sincerely,
Anne Dale |
