Helpertunity is utilizing the help of sewing volunteers to make customized wheelchair, walker, bed-rail, and arm-chair "Busy Bags" for able care-facility clients.

We also invite Volunteer Fashionistas to sew and donate Designer and Embellished Busy Bags... OR... to create and donate customized Embroidery-Patches and Iron-On-Appliques for use in Helpertunity's Busy Bag Project fundraising & advocacy efforts.
This project was created in order to advocate for increased patient-access to "independent and skill-based recreational pursuits" by nursing home residents.
