I have been making Hankies for Vets (c), and for Police Officers to thank them for their Service.
Thank You!

Yesterday I spoke with a very nice Marine at a service center for Veterans in the nearby town of Hyannis. I had called to ask advice on the correct protocols for a donation idea of mine, and ended up finding out a great deal about the wonderful services this center provides for our Veterans on Cape Cod.
There are between 70 and 200 homeless Veterans on Cape Cod. This Service Center runs two homes for homeless Vets now, and is building a third in the fall of 2016.
Currently they have enough quilts, but they exist on donations and some funding through the V.A. If you like the idea of helping Vets, but do not quilt, this is an organization that can use your cash donations.
They provide 16 beds in their Hyannis house, allowing 16 homeless Vets to remain in a bed for up to two years, while the center gives them support with counseling, filing for benefits, assistance with PTSD issues, a safe haven to get back on their feet. The second house is located in Mashpee, MA, another Cape Cod town, and the third house will be built in Dennis, Ma, which is the town next to mine. Please help the Cape's homeless Veterans with donations if you can.
