Community Service Projects
Total turtles sewn and delivered in 2011:
Nationwide = 5,151
ASGLA = 291
We believe that we should use our talents and abilities to give back to the community.  As a chapter we
adopt a project for the year as well as working on the National ASG Community Service Project.  
BUT...any member may work on any community service project that they wish.  ALL community service
counts toward our report to National ASG Headquarters.  Please fill out a Community Service Tracking
Form (click below) so that we can keep track of all Community Service.
What counts?  Working on costumes for your child's school play, sewing curtains for your church's
nursery, making walker totes for the senior citizen center, etc.
If you have any questions please
contact us.

2012 Community Service Project
The Houston Chapter, host of ASG’s 2012 annual conference, invites all ASG chapters to participate in The Blanket Project which
addresses a need common to all communities and provides warmth and comfort to those most in need of it. We have selected three
types of blankets for our national community service project:

  • Lap blankets for hospice patients
  • Lap blankets for veterans (VA hospitals or other veterans service programs)
  • Receiving blankets for babies (indigent families)

We'd like to have any of the above donation items or the c
omfort caps below gathered by the neighborhood group leaders or given to
CAB members to get to our Community Service CAB member, Katie.  She will then get them to the charities.  This way the charities
have a single ASGLA contact person, and members don't feel obligated to locate a charity and drive a few items over at a time.
 
Of course, if you  already have a charity  you've been working with, please continue.  Perhaps you could let
Katie know the contact
info, too, in case others might want to participate.
