Beading for Betterment

All are welcome

By Carol Hirsch

The Beading for Betterment project is a great opportunity to have fun and be of service, providing custom-made special necklaces for children at the Guadalupe Center in Immokalee to give to their mother, grandmother or other special woman in their life as a Mother’s Day gift. Necklaces have also been distributed to children who participate in Jewish Federation of Greater Naples’ Shop with a Sheriff event for Christmas.

Whether you are an experienced “beader” or have never made a beaded necklace, please join the group for a fun beading session. We are offering free sessions twice a month at the Nina Iser Jewish Cultural Center, 4720 Pine Ridge Road. The upcoming sessions are Monday, March 6 and Thursday, March 31 from noon to 3 p.m. More sessions will be announced soon.

If you have your own supplies, please bring them. Otherwise, supplies will be provided and only a donation will be requested for the purchase of additional supplies.

Donations toward the supplies, and/ or gift cards to Michael’s or JoAnn’s are always accepted either from those attending the sessions or anyone who wants to contribute.
