Vannessa's CAS Reflection #2

Although I am still experiencing difficulties with financing for hats, blankets, and care packages, I wanted to start something so I began investing in this project. I began going around my family members and asking them to donate yarn to crochet our hats. So far, it has been a success and I have managed to get about 5 grocery bags full of yarn so my partner Alejandra and I can finally start crocheting and starting our project. Although, my dad did hep our project and bought us some yarn as well. However, at this point we still need products to make tie blankets. I still have the same ideas to fund-raise to buy the supplies such as the tie blankets I just need some initiative to actually start a fundraiser. The problem with getting money for my project is still so stressful and frustrating. Another problem that hinders our CAS project is the fact that I cannot crochet. I was relying on Honda to teach me but come to find out she is just a beginner as well so we will have to reach out to somebody else such as my grandmas to begin starting our long journey of our project to improve the community as we try to improve their health emotionally and physically health. By doing so, I have had the ability to tackle some global issues of emotional poverty and to help people who may not have the same opportunities and help that most people should get during their state of poor health physically or emotionally. By doing this, we make a small change in our community to influence the global problems we face
