Mittens for Jamaica

The "Mitten Ladies" at Woodbury Lutheran are back this year, selling their famous mittens at local craft shows and bake sales.

100% of the proceeds from the mittens, hand-finished and made from repurposed, donated sweaters, supports Robin's Nest Children's Home in Montego Bay, Jamaica. To-date, mitten sales have netted nearly $100,000, the money used to purchase vehicles to transport the kids, a holding tank to provide safe, accessible water, appliances and more.

One-of-a-kind art designed to impact the lives of children in need, at $20/pair, the mittens are a perfect Christmas gift.

Sale dates and locations are:

Dec. 1, 8:30 - 11:30: Woodbury Lutheran Church Lobby  
December 7, 9 am - 5 pm:  Guardian Angels Bazaar
December 7, 9 am - 5 pm:  King of Kings Lutheran Craft Sale
December 8, 8:30 -- 11:30:  Woodbury Lutheran Church Lobby
December 11-12, 9 - 3:  Woodbury Lutheran Preschool Holiday Bake Sale
