IWD Volunteering

Me volunteering at Thread Together

In honour of International Women’s Day, I’m volunteering at a couple different events for women and girls this weekend. The first was today’s Thread Together’s “mobile wardrobe” at the Newtown Community Center. Thread Together receives donations of unsold, new clothing would otherwise go to landfill and distributes it to the community. Today we gave nearly 100 women each a new dress, hat, scarf, sunglasses, and a grab bag of jewellery. I was on hat duty! Everyone had a great time and was so appreciative, and fortunately the weather cooperated. ❤️👗☀️

Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
