Interest Continues in North
Shore Towers Charity
BY KAREN PERRY
Photo by Stephen Vrattos Past NST Courier articles
have profiled the acts of
charity performed by the
North Shore Towers Knitting and
Crocheting Club. Readers have
been told about the Club’s donations
of colorful blankets, hats
and stuffed animals to charitable
organizations in the greater New
York area. Reader interest has
been shown through increased
monetary and yarn donations. In
order to continue this momentum,
the Club will periodically share its
letters of praise with friends and
neighbors.
With locations in New York City
and on Long Island, St. Mary’s
Hospital for Children is “Where
big hearts help little patients.” In a
recent thank you letter, the hospital
praised the Knitting and Crocheting
Club:
“We hope that you take
great pride in your donations
to St. Mary’s and feel good in
knowing that you have played
a significant role in helping
children with special healthcare
needs achieve a better
quality of life.”
With a charitable relationship of
more than a decade, the Women’s
Health Center of the Jacobi Medical
Center remains the Club’s largest
recipient. A recent letter from
the Center’s Health Education
Coordinator praised the Club as
follows:
“You have no idea how
your generosity and thoughtfulness
impacts our patients...
It touches them so deeply that
someone cares enough to take
the time to create something
special just for them.”
Periodically, the Club receives
individual notes of thanks from
patients. Having received a
hand-knitted doll, a young Jacobi
patient wrote…
“I love it so much. Blessings
North Shore Knitters. I appreciate
your handmade things and
love you all!”
Another Jacobi patient wrote:
“Thank you so much for this
lovely blanket. I will definitely
use it to welcome my baby into
this world.”
As always, the Club appreciates
your labor, monetary contributions
or the donation of yarn and knitting
needles. You can reach out to
the North Shore Towers Knitting
and Crocheting Club by contacting
its President, Judi Ross, at (347)
235-4509.
