Final week!! This week we are a little behind because of some struggles we had to overcome. Our original plan was to give them to children at Brenner's Hospital, but with COVID-19 restrictions this was not possible. So, we had to come up with a new plan. This week we made Tie- Blankets for a children's home, Ebeneezer Christian Children's Home. Mallories POV This week was most definitely my favorite! This was really special to me personally because we used to foster out of this home and they trained us how to be foster parents. We had 2 kids come through our home, 1 boy and 1 girl. The girl stayed with us for almost 3 1/2 years! Being in this system really inspired me to do this act of kindness because I know how hard it can be for them. Being able to see the workers there light up with happiness after seeing the blankets and hearing out school project essentially made this project a success. This act will forever have a special place in my heart! Claires POV I really liked this week because it was fun and relaxing to make the blankets and I know they go to kids who will really appreciate it and need them, which is my favorite part about this project because its important to help people in need if you can. It is a really good feeling when you know you are helping others and making them happy. I have really enjoyed doing all of these acts of kindness because not only does it make yourself feel good, it makes others feel good and recognized.
