| Afghans for Afghans is a humanitarian and educational people-to-people project that sends hand-knit/crocheted and handwoven blankets, sweaters, vests, hats, mittens, and socks to the beleaguered people of Afghanistan. The CURE Hospital in Kabul requested shawls for the new mothers who receive maternity services. In response, 500 shawls were recently sent (including my two) from a collection point in San Francisco.
