May Meeting Notes
We had our May meeting yesterday, and here is what we discussed:
Change Drive for Haiti - Our change drive for Haitian earthquake relief is officially over. Once we visit the bank's coin-counting machine, we will post an update with our grand total. If you were not able to participate in our chapter's change drive but want to support Partners In Health, you can do so at www.standwithhaiti.org.
Magical Acts of Warmth - This project is going well. We are knitting snuggles for The Snuggles Project (www.snugglesproject.org) and afghan squares for Warm Up America (www.warmupamerica.org). We are going to continue with this project throughout the summer.
Herbology/Environment - Because Herbology is such a cool subject, we are going to be doing an environmental project. We are going to be collecting candy wrappers for TerraCycle (www.terracycle.net). TerraCycle collects items/wrappers that are not recyclable and remakes them into new items, which are sold at national stores.
Craft Fair - We are going to be participating in a craft fair in the fall. We are doing this as a fundraiser for the Harry Potter Alliance (www.thehpalliance.org) and the Firefly Foundation (www.fireflykidz.org).
