“OFA’s 2008 Red Scarf Initiative Rolls Earlier
Submission dates for the next Red Scarf Initiative have been changed to September 1 through October 15, 2007. This will enable OFA to send out the scarves by early winter (when they will do the most good).
Our goal this year is to take in around 7,000 scarves. Donors are requested to send in no more than five scarves to:
Orphan Foundation of America
Attn: Red Scarf Project
21351 Gentry Drive, Suite 130
Sterling, VA 20191
Stay tuned for further details, and be sure to check out the Now Norma Knits blog, http://nownormaknits2.typepad.com/red_scarf_project_2008/ , written by one of our most committed supporters, to get a great take on the Red Scarf Project.” (Her site is requesting Quality over Quantity.)
The site also offers a scarf pattern, in both knitting and crochet, designed by Lily Chen especially for this project.
