The Smile Train
I was at a Makers Market yesterday with 3 friends - we shared a stall which was a lot of fun, we met lots of great people and were inspired by everyone around us.
I raffled one of my baby blankies to raise money for charity. Having been unable to participate in the latest Craft Hope project I decided that I could still use my crafting talents to raise some money for a good cause. I chose the charity Smile Train, who are an organisation that provide cleft lip and palate surgery to children in the developing world and I raised £40/$70 through my raffle....enough to cover the costs of the drugs required for one surgery......

Di that is just wonderful. Thank you for spreading the hope!
Good for you! My aunt and I were just discussing our charities of choice this past weekend - she's donating to Smile Train, and we're sticking with Heifer and Water for People, two organizations that my husband and I like.
