One Warm Scarf seeks shipping help
Los Altos resident Sandy Goldstein of the nonprofit One Warm Scarf has hundreds of hats, scarves and small blankets to offer to border refugees, and she needs help sending them. She is looking for an organization or group to pay for shipment.
“I want to send hundreds of hats/scarves/blankets to the border refugees,” she said. “In the past, I have paid to mail small items like infant booties, hats and small blankets. Now with the pending influx from Ukraine, Mexico and South America, I want to ship hundreds of handmade items made by our Bay Area seniors.”
To offer help, email Goldstein at [email protected].
