Sewing with U of I Students 7 Nov 2019

Calling all sewing Grannies….and those who can cut fabric!  We’ve been invited to help the U of I student Environmental Coalition make reusable feminine pads.

The week of November 3rd-7th the U of IA Environmental Coalition is planning a sustainability week on campus.  The students have invited the Grannies to help them sew reusable feminine pads that will be distributed to either at the Coralville Food Pantry or to a community in Kenya.   The event is November 7th, 7 pm  in the Office of Sustainability and the Environment  located at 301 Communications Center.  This is across from the Old Capital Mall Ramp.

If you have a sewing machine and would like to participate, please let me know.  Not many students have sewing machines so they need us!  It’s so nice to be needed.  I think it’s a good idea to keep our relationship with these young people in good standing.

Please let me know if you can come or have questions.   Thank you!  Becky Ross (See your member email for Becky’s contact information.)
