Scarves for Hope will be taking a short break from the PG Farmer's Market until March, 2024. But if you're looking for yarn between now and then, you can still place an order on the website www.scarvesforhopepg.ca, or fill out the contact form on the website, or message me through facebook messenger.

2024 is starting out to be a very exciting year! I'll be heading back to Ethiopia with Hope International Development Agency later this winter to see some of the projects you've all helped me support over the last seven years. Stay tuned for updates! 💦

Women in Self Help Groups around the world are planting seeds of change everyday! It takes vision, determination and diligence to start a small business and work out of the cycle of poverty. We are lucky that we get to support these women's vision, and match their determination and diligence with your generosity. Together, big things are possible!

Clean Water for Southern Ethiopia

In March of 2017, I had the privilage of travelling with Hope International Development Agency to southern Ethiopia. There, I visited villages where gravity-fed water systems were being installed, and witnessed first-hand the life-changing impact access to clean water has on these communities. The experience inspired me to do more to help, so I turned my love for crocheting into a fundrasier. My hand made scarves and shawls are sold and profits are donated to Hope International Development Agency for funding more of these clean water projects. See https://hope-international.com/ for more information on these, and other projects Hope International is working on around the world.
