Content: Hello. My name is Kari Grimm. I am a member of Captain’s Cove Humanitarian Club. We are a group of 14 women whom live in Captain’s Cove, Greenbackville, Virginia. We gather weekly to sew, crochet and knit for the greater good. Thus far everything has been made with items which have been donated by community members. We have never solicited from any business before but are in dire need of supplies. I am writing to you to ask for donations. Carol Pedrick is the founder and manages the group. Carol wanted to give back, so in 2017 she reached out to a few friends and the group has continued to grow. So that you better understand what we do, the following list are what we made and where they were donated to for the year 2021.Sewing GroupAdult Bibs - 49 - Veterans Hospital at Perry Point, MarylandDresses - 145 - Sent to GuatemalaLap Blankets - 53 - Donated to a local home care nurse and physical therapist for distribution to home bound patientsDignity Kits - 21 - Includes 5 washable sanitary pads, storage pouch (the washable sanitary pads are several layers sewn together.
