Thanks to the members who volunteered at the 3rd Annual Ronald McDonald Telethon with WNCT. The ladies had a great time together and the Telethon reached over $26,000 in pledges!

Under the leadership of Gwen Gordon, our Special Projects Committee has been making the rounds! Delivering crayons, activity books, and coloring books to Vidant Hospital are members Carol Rados and Brenda Whichard. These supplies will be used by the children who are at the hospital but are not allowed to go into visitations. The purchase of these supplies came from the sale of dog chews which is a spinoff of the Blanket Workshop Project.
Here is another delivery of supplies to the Creative Living Center. Members donated paper products, trash bags, magazines and other items at the February General Membership meeting. These supplies are much needed and appreciated by the Creative Living Center staff.
Our thanks to all the hard work by the Special Projects Committee!
A fun time was had by all at our November Blanket Workshop. We had 13 ladies cutting and hand tying fleece blankets — and having a good chat!
Hospital Activities Chair Cassie Causey delivered 16 blankets to the Office of Patient and Family Experience, who were thrilled to receive them!
Thank you to all who participate in our blanket workshops! They bring warmth and comfort to patients and are much appreciated and even requested.

We had a great turnout for our first fall blanket workshop this year! Service League of Greenville members made 19 colorful hand-tied blankets and delivered them to Vidant Patient and Family Experience, who will gifted them to Vidant patients.
These workshops are always a wonderful way to connect with our fellow members and show individual Vidant patients how much we care.
Thank you to all the members who participate in and donate to this worthy project!
