Sewing Volunteers Needed
Do you enjoy volunteering at your own home, on your own time?
Do you have a sewing machine and can help with sewing projects?
Do you want to use your ‘Sewing Super Powers’ to help ensure children and adults with disabilities have the fabric ‘tools’ to be successful everyday?
No need to be a master seamstress but an interest in helping and following pattern instructions to create needed, daily items.
LifeScape will have the sewing instructions and all the supplies, we just need your sewing skills to create and adapt to specific needs.
