Binky Patrol and HandsOn Greater Portland are joining together to host an event over MLK weekend. Easy ways to volunteer, have fun and make blankets for children and teens in need of comfort.

All ages welcomed! All skill levels.
We REALLY need volunteers who can bring sewing machines.

There are three volunteer opportunities:
one to cut fabric at one location and two to make blankets at Holy Trinity Church in Beaverton.
