In Honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Keystone College located in LaPlume, PA held a Day of Service. Approximately 60 people, mostly students of Keystone, volunteered their time to help make 22 sleeping bags. Some came on their day off and some came in between classes.

We are grateful for the huge outpouring of interest, from everyone, for dedicating their time and sewing skills, to helping to keep 22 people warm this winter.  Thanks for doing such a great job!

This year we give Thanks to YOU. We are truly humbled by the dedication that you have given to the Sleeping Bag Project to help make our homeless neighbors be warmer. We could not have done it without you. There is a huge homeless problem, all across the country and it keeps on growing.

We are all able to do some good, in some small way, to make their lives more comfortable. We cannot heal this massive problem, but we can help to put a smile on their faces. By making the sleeping bags, knitting hats, gloves & scarves or giving a clean pair of socks, you all make a difference in someone’s life.

This is why we are Thankful for having you be a part of Our life. Please keep up the good work as we enter another cold winter season.

We love to hear from you. Please write or email us @ mbkqg@epix.net to let us know what you are doing and where you are.
