Now that the winter cold has well and truly arrived, we wanted to share this beautiful feedback we received from the Canberra Hospital Foundation, to help warm the soul
“I had a child today who has an African American father and, knowing that, I was able to give her a hand knitted doll from the toys provided by you, that reflected her ethnic heritage.
Can I say a big thank you to the anonymous maker as this made both the mum and her daughter’s day.
I think it would be lovely for the knitters/crocheters and wonderful crafters to know the impacts their actions have, and if possible could they continue to reflect Canberra’s wonderful diversity in the toys they make for us.”
Thank you to everyone who donates their time, skills and energy to make a wide and wonderful
array of donations, to reflect the diversity of the Canberra community, and help bring warmth and comfort to patients, no matter who they are.
In the meantime, stay warm and keep crafting!
