I wanted to update everyone on the current status of our project. We had our second work day (photos to be included soon) and much to my surprise we didn't get as much done as I had expected. I certainly had an unrealistic veiw of what could be accomplished. The good news is, that by next weekend all the pillows will be complete and ready for delivery. Speaking of delivery, the pillows have found a home much closer to my own. Due to many legal stipulations The Oprah Winfrey Academy cannot accept  our pillows. Fortunately,I have found an organization in New Haven called the Youth Continuum. They serve homeless youths,creating safe and nurturing environments for them to live in. Most are group foster care programs. One in particular serves young women 16-18 years of age. They all live together and are participating in a class series which teaches them life skills. We will be giving them the pillows at their class on March 15th. We will encorporate messages of  self esteem and empowerment to live a life of love and choice. Also, pillows will be available for purchase on this website and at Creative Body Therapies (1079 Whalley Ave). The cost is 25.00 and the proceeds will go directly to The Youth Continuum. Thanks to all for the support!
