The Big Bass Crocheters group was established about 35 years ago and has about 10 members who meet once a week to share friendship, their love crafts and support the needs of their surrounding communities.
So far in 2018, they have helped make 150 red or white hats to be given to newborns in our local hospital during “Heart Month” and they have donated blankets to the NICU in Stroudsburg for babies that would not be going home.
They have made 48 Octopus Dolls that were donated to the NICU at Pocono Medical Center and are just completing another volunteer project for 33 Sleepy Head Dolls for Trinity Church Day Care Center in Scranton. This facility serves 33 children that have special needs that require medical attention. Their ages range from 4 months to 6 years.
They give countless items to many different organizations, including the “gratuity project” for our soldiers overseas and blankets for the homeless vets.
