We give alot of our time, but I also crochet and sew items that we hand out. I also send for freebies, and the ones that we don't need at home we donate there.Terri G.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010626472834900402.post-40247021034873780712013-03-12T20:45:18.692-06:002013-03-12T20:45:18.692-06:00I love that you work to keep the library available...I love that you work to keep the library available to the community, Sandra!

Giving time can be more meaningful, and connects us to others, as well. We're giving back in a few different ways. <br /><br />Our community library is manned only by volunteers, so we try to put in at least two hours per week to keep the door open and the "Open" sign lit. We also always provide donations (and labor, when we can) to fundraisers.<br /><br />Like you, we take baked goods to share to church.<br /><br />I also work with yarn and once a year, have been sending hats and scarves I've made to a charity up north (just not that big a need down here).<br /><br />Finally, I'm working with another lady at church to produce a church cookbook. <br /><br />Sandra @<a href="http://smartfoodstorage.blogspot.com>Smart Food Storage </a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
