Crochet for Comfort - Volunteer Opportunity (In-Person and Virtual)

Next event (Monthly): Aug 9, 2025 4:30pm-5:30pm 

Join us for a meaningful and creative experience as part of the Creative Connections project. Volunteers will come together to learn how to crochet granny squares, which will be assembled into comforting blankets for patients undergoing chemotherapy. No experience is needed — all levels are welcome, and materials will be provided.

Already know how to crochet? This is also a virtual volunteer opportunity! You can create 9x9 inch granny squares from home and either mail them in, drop them off, or request a local pickup.

Time: 4:30 PM – 5:30 PM
Location: 4201 Ann Arbor Saline Road, Ann Arbor, MI
For local pickup requests or mailing details, contact: Shreeja Rucker – acm.shreeja@gmail.com

Let’s stitch together warmth and hope — one square at a time.
