Comfort ShawlsGift of Life Michigan

2011As a hug imparts comfort and love, so these shawls will embrace, enfold and comfort those who will receive them. Shawls, made and worn can provide warmth, solace and beauty to those who wrap them around themselves.

The Michigan Donor Family Council, MDFC, started the “Comfort Shawl Program” to provide donor families comfort in their time of need. The shawls can be knitted or crocheted in various shades of pastels, ivory or white. The pattern should be fairly simple and the shawls should be approximately 36” by 60”.

After the shawls are complete members of the MDFC will attach a heart locket and note to each one. They will then be given to the coordinators who are with the families at the hospital.

Completed shawls should be turned into: Gift of Life Michigan
