Community Holiday Gifts Program
The IDEALab is currently in search of a sewing machine donation to support our ongoing projects at Altona. We have a dedicated group of sewers who are passionately creating artifacts, quilts, and bags, and they would greatly benefit from the use of a newer sewing machine.
If you have any questions or would like more information about our project endeavors, please feel free to reach out to Jessica Campbell, IDEALab Coordinator, at [[email protected]] or [720-494-3980 x 35569].
