Community Service

Tucson Chapter members contribute annually toward community outreach. Large sew-a-thons, smaller groups and individuals are all part of a network that donates time and sewing talents toward making a difference in the lives of others.

Previous Community Service Projects

Tote bags for the EMERGE Center

In May, 2024 the NW group made tote bags for the EMERGE center which were then filled with full size toiletry items (shampoo, soap, deodorant, toothpaste and toothbrushes, etc. ) Francine Crist and Joy Lautenschlaeger co-ordinated the effort with the shelter for abused women. We would like to thank Brandon Webb, ASID of the Artful Space located at 12985 Oracle Rd. in Oracle, AZ for his generous donation of vinyl and fabric which was used for many of the tote bags.


Bunny Blankets

On July 1st, 2024 the Northwest NG met in July to make bunny blankets. They will be donated to the Children Under 12 project at the Christmas luncheon.


Holiday Giving for Under 12

The Holiday Giving for Under 12 was a huge success. Members produced some wonderful gifts which shared with three local charity organizations, St. Vincent de Paul, Marana Children and Family Center, and Old Pueblo Community Services. Members brought their donations to the ASG Tucson Christmas Luncheon. Dolls, bears, blankets, sloths, toys, books and clothing were donated. These items were greatly appreciated by our charities.
