Bears & Blankets for Children served by REACH Program
Robin Johnson, Grape Creek Homemaker, makes bears to give to Reach for children from bad situations. She also makes the blankets and will be training the Mayor's Rising Stars to make blankets to give to the less fortunate. We are so proud of Robin and her many talents and helping numerous people in nursing homes and many children over the years.
Special Christmas Gifts for Children's Home
Lastly, the Grape Creek ECA ladies made homemade Book Pillows which were donated this December to the Truett Baptist Children's Home in Hayesville, NC. Each book pillow was embroidered with the recipient's name on it for a special Christmas gift they can cherish. Sue Rhodes, County ECA President said, "I am so proud of our most talented giving ladies. They are always thinking of others throughout the year and what we can do to help. What a blessing to be involved with these most precious friends."
