Skid Row Collaboration
Crafting Change is teaming up with partner Every Day Action to help provide warm winter clothing items in hygiene kits to unsheltered persons living on Skid Row and Veterans Row and other unsheltered encampments in Los Angeles this winter.
Crafting Change Founders Kent & Tiffany Herbert will be returning to LA this winter to join our partners for distributions of food, hygiene kits and warm clothing items and blankets. We'd love to have your help in filling our hygiene bags with love and warmth!

project must-knows
We will be collecting ANY warm winter items either sewn, knit, crocheted or manufactured/purchased. We will distribute these throughout the winter months for adults.
Items can be sent to Crafting Change HQ. (Don't forget about our partnership with Give Back Box for a $20 shipping label!)
We are focusing on warm winter items we can easily make like ear warming headbands, and fingerless gloves/mittens. We also need Blankets. Gently used blankets in good condition are accepted and this is a great use for the Give Back Box to have cheap shipping! We also need soap sacks and soap.
We are also collecting the following hygiene items and if you have hotel size extras laying around your house, can get some from your local dollar store or want to visit our wish list, we would appreciate any help filling our hygiene bags!
