Blanket Project supports animal sanctuary fundraiser

FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Blanket Project supported the Fallbrook Animal Sanctuary by donating a star-shaped Christmas hand-crocheted blanket to be in a silent auction at their fundraising Christmas Store.

The store, located near Major Market on Main Avenue, will be open from Nov. 7 through Dec. 29, Tuesdays through Sundays with varying hours.

New and gently used holiday items can be donated to this store, the largest annual fundraiser for the no-kill, all volunteer run sanctuary for cats and dogs. One hundred percent of the profits go to the animal sanctuary so all are encouraged to go check it out.

The Fallbrook Blanket Project, created in 2014, consists of many different volunteers of all ages who love to knit and crochet for others. All items are donated to North County charities, their fundraisers or occasionally sold to help support the project.

This group previously met at Fallbrook Library but is now, through the generosity of the Fallbrook Village Association, meeting every other Monday at the downtown Vince Ross Village Square at Alvarado and Main. The volunteers also teach, for free, knitting and crocheting.

For more information, contact Laura Turley-Denny, 949-610-5173 or Michele Turley, 951-275-7631, or email fallbrookblanketproject.org.
