Hats and Scarves Help Others
By Genna Schofield, 5S
My Mission
There are a lot of people that need hats and scarves, because they are sick and lose their hair and other people are homeless and live outside in cold temperatures. I decided to make hats and scarves for the Ronald McDonald House in Philadelphia to help families with sick children.
My Plan
To start my project, I emailed Jenny Casey at the Ronald McDonald House. She said they would be happy to accept the donations. Next, I got the materials I needed like yarn and fabric. I did ask Joann Fabrics for a donation, but they only donate to large projects through their head corporation. I also got a lot of leftover fabric from my grandmother. Next, I started knitting hats and sewing scarves. My goal is make and donate at least 15 hats and 15 scarves to the Ronald McDonald House.
