What is Warming Families?

Picture
Warming Families is a 100% volunteer charitable project that helps children in need, the homeless, victims of domestic violence and the elderly. The objective is to collect warm hand-made or new items. The success of this program is dependent on individuals, families or organizations who donate their time and materials towards providing items need needed by members of our local community.
