I decided to organize this group in a home setting since it's more comfortable than a hard seat at a coffee shop. The purpose of this group is to have like minded individuals to share ideas, friendships and to create different projects for charity. Bring a camping chair, your current project, and join the fun!  There're inexpensive sets of crocheting needles you can buy at any craft store then go wild finding your favorite color yarns.

Civitan International is an organization of volunteer service clubs around the world, dedicated to helping people in their own communities. Civitans help wherever the need arises - from collecting food for a homeless shelter, to volunteering at their local retirement home, to building a playground for children with disabilities.
