We serve a continually expanding community of women, infants, children, teens, and families in local and global areas of conflict. Read below for details of our deliveries near and far.

Local Neighborhoods

Many of our members recognize “areas of conflict” in their own community: individuals suffering from illness, disease, injury, loss of a loved one, loss of a job, victims of violence, homelessness, etc. In these cases, women4women-knitting4peace encourages members to prayerfully create an item(s) most appropriate for the intended recipient. When the item is finished, bless it (click on the Blessings link under What We Do for some examples.) Deliver your item. Tell us about your delivery. We will include your work as part of our organization if you send us a brief description as follows:

1. Tell us what you are doing or have already done (click on the Contact Us link.)
2. Include a description and quantity of items delivered.
3. Include the first name of the recipient (using first name only protects the privacy of the recipient while also allowing us to maintain accurate records.)
4. Optional: if you and your recipient want to share your experience with others, send a photo to us with your e-mail and a brief description about your experience. We'll add it to our Stories page.

Global Deliveries since our founding on June 25, 2006

Listed below are countries where we have made personal deliveries. In some cases there are accompanying photos and narratives. Our goal is to have visual and narrative documentation for all our future deliveries. Photos need to focus on the delivery recipient, not the environment, or they will not be posted in the gallery.
