We hope to be able to give to many teen outreach centers and homeless
shelters/missions throughout the United States 2009 Winter Season!
Love's Gal, Debi Peterson from Leavenworth, WA collected scarves that were given to the Solomon's Porch, a teen outreach center. Desiree, director of Solomon's Porch, helps in sorting and packaging for the teens that will soon be given the heartfelt warmth from many Love's crafters from all over the United States. This photo was taken by Chelsea, a local reporter of the Leavenworth Echo.

Dana Jonsgaard from Winona, MN
"I'm a wife, mother of 3, and a full-time homecrafter".
"Helping those in need was all I wanted to do! I created "Love's Many Cloths" on November 10th 2005."
I was able to meet many other heartfelt crafters that also have the same dream. Together we put smiles on the faces of many and hope in the hearts of those in despair. We make homemade facecloths for shelters of the homeless, battered or displaced, and transitioned. Our cloths are also loved by the elderly in hospices and our patients at a South Georgia hospital. In the past 2+ years we have grown in many ways. Dana
