Who We Are
Founded in 2000, Warming Families is a project that helps the homeless, the elderly, victims of domestic violence and children in need. Their mission is to collect warm hand-made or new items, including blankets, hats, scarves, mittens and personal care products.
This volunteer charitable program is dependent on individuals, families and organizations who donate their time and materials towards bettering the lives of the members in local communities. Since the date of its foundation as an internet-based initiative, Warming Families has expanded to include many chapter area volunteers across the United States and Canada!
