So wonderful that you turned your concern into ACTION. I'm wondering if this project is finished or will you continue to knit items for Appalachia? Wonder if you could share a link to the organization? (I have participated since the 1970's in the Box Project, which originally focused on the deep poverty in the Delta area of MS. They have spread out to other areas now. http://www.boxproject.org)  I too was touched by that Diane Sawyer special on the children of Appalachia.
