Knit a Square is back! February is a wonderful time to open one's heart and give. Together the Adult, Teen and Children Departments invite you to participate in a month-long program aimed at benefiting Aids orphans in South Africa. At its heart, Knit-a-Square is a simple knitting for charity project. During the month of February, we are collecting 8 inch squares. Every square collected will be sent to South Africa to be used in making a blanket to keep an orphan or abandoned child warm through the KASCARE non-profit organization. Detailed information is available at the Adult and Children circulation desks.
