Fresno FiberArts Guild Outreach Programs
ST. AGNES HOLY CROSS CENTER FOR WOMEN
Holy Cross Center for Women is located across from Poverello House on F Street in downtown Fresno. The Center provides a day shelter where lower income and homeless women come for a respite and to take advantage of available programs and services.
One of the services is a sewing room with 10 sewing machines and a large storage area for fabric, notions as well as supplies for knitting and crocheting projects and other fiber oriented projects.
FFG supports the sewing center financially through its budget as well as a team of Guild members who offer varied skills and abilities as they work to address the interests and needs of the women. In addition, Guild members donate supplies that the women are given and use in their individual projects.
We have developed relationships with many of the women and we have learned from them as they have learned from us. We welcome Guild members who want to participate with us in this meaningful work.
Please continue to support this project through your donations of fabric, yarn, and miscellaneous notions. In addition, personal hygiene items are always welcome. These items can be brought to a Guild meeting.
