Even though our family here in South Africa, lives so very far away from the BP oil spill that is ongoing in the Gulf, it is incredibly sad for us to witness this tragedy for marine life and all those whose lives have been touched in a negative way by this crisis… We wanted to help in some way… I came across an amazing web site this morning called Craft Hope. They have found a way for all of those who would like to help in any way that they can. I am so excited and inspired by this… Craft Hope has partnered with The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies and are going to help them with the clean up of the marine animals that have been affected by this oil spill. What they need are cloths, wash rags 10 x 10 size or hand towels that are 14 x 27 and can be cotton, terri cloth, knitted , crocheted etc…
To sign up to help and for more details like where to send you cloths and suggestions on what to use to make them, please visit here.
Even the smallest gesture will make the world of difference:)
Warmly
Linda
