Pam Crow and Navajo Elder with Woven Rug

At the November meeting, Pam Crow showed a rug that she bought from the weavers on the Navajo Reservation. She shares this information with us:

“I was there helping with the Adopt a Native Elder program. Here is the web site that shows what they do and how you can help the elder weavers. http://www.anelder.org/. I had a friend who helps deliver the food boxes each year who invited me to join her this year. It was so inspiring to see how grateful they are for so little. It is a $75 commitment 2 times a year. After we deliver the food and share a meal and gifts they show the rugs and jewelry they want to sell to help make ends meet.”
