If you are searching for a “feel good” program-with-a-purpose, you will touch many lives by being a Group Projects/Homeworker volunteer. RSVP volunteers work in groups and/or at home to make everything from baby items to quilts to walker/wheelchair bags, and much more. These items are then distributed to nonprofit organizations, social service agencies, faith-based organizations, schools, etc. throughout Dane County to help their clients of all ages. Our volunteers often tell us this program is what gets them going in the morning….to give from the hand and the heart, not to mention the camaraderie, friendship, and social interaction that is part of volunteering together in a group.
Join us! RSVP Group Projects are located in Belleville, Cambridge, Cross Plains, Deerfield, Fitchburg, McFarland, Mt. Horeb, New Glarus, Oregon, Verona, Waunakee, and several sites in Madison. We receive donations of yarn, fabric, thread, batting, and sewing supplies from many sources: volunteers, community members, businesses, and organizations. We are proud that our volunteers recycle thousands of pounds of donated materials each year. To request handmade items: Please check here to download a Request for Handmade Items Form in printable pdf format. To volunteer, or to donate yarn and sewing materials: Please contact Mary Dwyer, at 608 663-1319. Or, fill out the online request form which you will find here.
