Opportunity for Artists and Crafters

We are needing people to make gifts for our HITC team to take to the employees of two men’s clubs we are reaching out to. Jewelry, mementos, small crafts, etc. are wonderful. Also, we need lots of cookies to take! If you would like to help with either of these needs, please contact Brenda Matyis at bmatyis@austin.rr.com or Melanie Devereaux at melanied@hopeinthecity.org.
