CANCER CAP VOLUNTEERS NEEDED As some of you are aware Jellybean (my dog) and I volunteer once a week visiting patients at the BC Cancer Centre in Surrey. Since they know I have a sewing store they asked if I would be able to help with sewing these Cancer Caps. We all probably know someone that is either had to battle Cancer or is in the process just like one of our Sundrop Girls. Whatever can be done to offer some comfort is always appreciated and these caps are just one of those ways. We have sleep caps that have been requested and then there are a variety of patterns for everyday caps that can be used. If you have a favourite pattern then great you are welcome to use it. The Vancouver Cancer Centre had a large quantity of fabric donated and has provided us with some of that fabric and I have donated fabric from the store as well. Only fabric that has not been previously used for clothing or other items is allowed. The caps we make will be distributed to centres in the Lower Mainland. We have had a number of volunteers help in the past and we are thankful for that. Cancer Caps can not be re-donated for hygienic reasons so new caps must be constantly made. Unfortunately the need for the caps keeps increasing. We need people to help cut out the caps as well as sew these caps. So if you have a friend that doesn’t sew bring them along and they can help cut out the caps. We will open up our classroom anytime there isn’t a class going on so it can be used for this purpose. You are welcome to take some caps home to complete and return to Sundrop. Please be sure to provide us with your name and contact as the Cancer Centre would like to say thank you to everyone that volunteers sewing these caps. I hope you will be able to spare some time this year to assist with this on going project. I personally thank all of you that have already offered your time and thank you in advance to those of you that will be able to assist this year. We will also send out requests by email and on Facebook for set dates as well.
