In December 2020, 55 scarfs were hand made by members of the Herndon Fortnightly and Herndon Woman's Club for the Foster Care 2 Share Red Scarf Project. Due to covid-19, planning for fundraisers and other activities are handled mostly on line. Members have found time to meet in downtown Herndon - wearing masks - to take a short walk. Each month during 2020, members have presented 125 birthday bags to residents at Harbor House. |
