This looks like a worthy project to continue and try to finish in the future. Like a Saturday workshop to complete the bags and a trip to help deliver them! It’s a great way to meet our mission to contribute to the well-being of the community.
Wonderful work, all of you! It looks like it was hard, but worthwhile work. Thank you for sharing. And for sharing how others can support and get involved.
Here’s more information about the Chip Bag Project that our students were able to support. https://www.chipbagproject.com/ The sleeping bags we started will be completed by volunteers at the Chip Bag Project and then given to houseless people in the colder months.
So cool! Did you buy chips to do this or use chips that were distributed at school? Where did you pass these out. LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Tell me more!
This project looks so cool! Such amazing work from all of you. Thank you for sharing this with us!

I love everything about this: the music, the project, the smiling faces! Where did you learn how to make these and who will they go to?
