Crochet for Charity

I love being able to create something out of nothing and give it to someone who really needs it. Charity allows me do just that! A huge plus is the sense of fulfillment it gives me when I do this. Giving your crochet to charity is a great way to make and make and make without annoying your family with tons of crocheted gifts, but it also gives back in a way that will truly bring someone joy!

Here is a small list of charities that I've found that accept crocheted and knitted items as donation. You can find all the info you need on these sites. Unfortunately charities seem to come and go often, so if a link is no longer valid then please feel free to leave a comment below.
