Erie Gives update
It's almost 2:00 and 6 hours to go with this wonderful Erie Gives on line event today. We have a very generous community and would appreciate your help, to help children in need. Your donation will assist our organization with blanket making materials. On average we distribute over 200 new handmade blankets a month. In fact, this year we have surpassed 44,000 since our Chapter opened in May of 1998.
