Jean works on one of her crocheted hats

Jean's donation of handmade hats, mittens, and scarves

For this community spotlight, we'd like to recognize Jean!

Jean is an avid crafter. For a few months she has been working to fill a box with hats, mittens, and scarves in all sizes. She's already started on more!

These items are available for anyone who needs them in the lobby at the admin office in Farwell.

We asked Jean what inspired her to volunteer her time and resources, and this is what she had to say:

"I know there are so many people struggling to make ends meet. I just want to do what I can to give them a bit of warmth."

Thank you, Jean, for using your talent and giving your time helping to keep people warm!
