Knitting for a Cause
Your greatness is not what you have, it's what you give.
Chicks with Sticks Mission Statement
Our mission is to use the talents God gave us to benefit those in need.
To knit for causes such as homeless shelters, hospitals, charities, and hospices near or far being limited only by the needs made known to us.
To encourage each other and forge strong friendships along the way.
To respect each other's differences and support each other in stressful times.
To share the joys in each other's lives.
To leave our troubles at home and enjoy two hours of gossip-free, productive time.
To share our knowledge of new or different techniques and praise each other's accomplishments.
And lastly, to enjoy ourselves.
