Throughout the year, CTA's are encouraged to make items to contribute to charity and bring them to the November meeting. CTA's have contributed items such as quilts and baby blankets, handbags, stuffed animals, clothing, knitted items, as well as socks, underwear and personal items. In the past these donations have primarily been given to the charities we support.
