Community Outreach
The chapters of the region, both
individually and collectively, engage in a number of initiatives to reach out to
and share with our communities. Chapters use needle arts to raise community
awareness about EGA , to help make our communities a better place, and to
further the knowledge about needle arts.
These activities range from fund
raisers for worthy causes to stitched items for new Habitat for Humanity
homeowners to public stitch-ins and exhibits to teaching needle arts to children
to creating ecclesiastical embellishments. Refer to the individual
chapter pages for more information about the activities of the chapters in
the Carolinas Region.
Contact the
Chair of the Carolinas Region Community Outreach Committee with your ideas
and comments.
Carolinas Region recognizes outreach
activities of its members by presenting chapters with Certificates of
Appreciation at each Region Meeting. Chapters are requested to provide an
annual report to the Chair of the Outreach Committee using the
Outreach Reporting
Form in either Word
or PDF
format.
EGA made
significant contributions throughout the country to The American Heart
Association for Women's Heart Health Research through the sale of heart-themed
designs. All donations to AHA are to benefit women's heart health research.
