Crafting Sunshine
Crafting for those who need a little sunshine.
A little information about Crafting Sunshine
This charity started when we realized there were so many groups that needed more help than we could give on our own. We picked a few groups that were close to our hearts to focus on. They are our two local animal shelters, ALS(Lou Gehrig's Disease) Central & Southwest Ohio Chapter, Hospice, and our local children's medical center. Right now, we are working on becoming a registered non-profit, charitable organization with the label, 501 (c). Please bare with us as we organize our online side.

Crafting Sunshine would like to remind you to move your clocks forward 1 hour before you go to bed on Mar. 12 (tomorrow night). It is also a good idea to change the batteries in your smoke detectors when changing your clocks!
