how can I help?

If you are interested in helping, first of all, thank you! Please visit the calendar of events to see what events have formally been planned!

You can also look below and see if there is a coordinator in your region to contact about the details of helping out. You may also prayerfully consider becoming a coordinator if there are none in your area.

Regional Coordinators
General Questions – Jo Wheeler
Kirksville, MO – Sierra Eskra and Kathie Wilkin
Seattle, WA – Stacie Helm
New Boston, TX/Northeast Texas – Marni Raney
Port Neches, TX/Southeast Texas – Elaine Hinson
Houston, TX – Katie Rentfro
Austin/Central Texas – Beth Carroll (web master) and Jenny Smith

We are looking for

  • Crocheters who will make the 4ft x 6 ft mats
  • People who will save plastic bags (we will need 200-300 mat)
  • Plarn workers (workers who make the plastic into yarn)
  • Financiers who may not have the time but would send funds to get these mats to the pregnant women and young children in Uganda.

This is such a little luxury to give to a pregnant mother and/or child. Please contact one of the coordinators in your region if you’d like to work on a mat individually or you’d like to organize your own group such as a church group or group of students would like to have a Mat for Moms Crochet Party.

Curious where all of these mats will be coming from? Here’s a map that shows all of the locations of the crocheters giving of their time:

    Hi, there :) I have a small group starting maps at our church in Aurora, Colorado. I would be willing to be a coordinator for our area; however, my husband works in Asia and I am back and forth a lot–though PTL for Skype & email! What are the responsibilities of an area coordinator and could they be handled through email, etc., or shared?
