Palos Verdes / Torrance Chapter
Lulu Squires, Area Coordinator

LulusBinky@yahoo.com

Our Chapter started in 2000 with two volunteers.
We have grown to 100 volunteers, the youngest being 3 years old. 
All ages and skills are welcome.
If you don't sew, knit or crochet, you can still support our chapter 
by collecting fabric, batting and yarn.

FURRY FRIENDS PROJECT

 

What to do with leftover fabric scraps? Our new "Furry Friends Project" will use our leftover scraps of fabric to create binkies for cold furry friends (cats and dogs) who are living in local shelters, or are waiting to be adopted. Your best friend is waiting for his Binky!
