🎨 "Arts & Crafts on 5" Giving Back 🛏️💙
Folkestone Arts and Crafts on 5 recently had the pleasure of welcoming leadership from My Very Own Bed, an incredible organization that provides beds, linens, and comfort items to children in need throughout Hennepin County.
During the visit, our group proudly presented Meg Hobday with four newly handmade blankets, along with a generous monetary donation for My Very Own Bed. This donation was made possible thanks to the kindness and generosity of our FS shoppers at our November sale—your support truly makes a difference!
Thank you to everyone who helped turn creativity and compassion into something so meaningful. 💕
