We got our 501(c)(3) tax exemption!!!

Hey supporters!
I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their support over the past 2 years helping us get this amazing non-profit off the ground and we've made serious leaps and bounds! Over the next month there were be some great things happening at Knit Around the World. Currently we are working on updating our website with more information and we are planning some great surprises for May, our anniversary month! Please keep an eye towards our Facebook page and this blog for updates.
One thing we are planning is a weekly blog post (time permitting) where I keep you up to date with our plans and how you can help. I will also rolling out a survey for you to fill out to let us know what you are interested in seeing from us in terms of products, involvement and communication. There might even be prizes for filling out the survey!!!!

About 501(c)(3) Status

Due to the fact that we just recently received our change in status it is taking some time to make adjustments to make sure that anyone who donates gets a letter to verify their tax deduction, whether through mailing a check, paypal donation or knitting needles/yarn donations. There is a lot for us to learn so please be patient with us as we learn how to navigate through these new waters.

New Board Members!

I also wanted to mention that we have 2 new board members, Natasha Levinsohn and Kristin McGinnis. You may remember Natasha from our trip to Malawi last August. I'm very excited to welcome them to the board, I know they will bring refreshing ideas and perspectives.

Again, thank you for all your support!
