The San Pedro Valley Needle Group with some of their donations to the VA Hospital.
The San Pedro Valley Needle Group is a group of local ladies that love to sew and help others. The group made 31 quilts for veterans which will be delivered to the V.A. Hospital in Tucson. They have previously donated pillows and mats that they made for animals at the Humane Society and will be working on hats and scarves for people with cerebral palsy. The material come from donations from individuals and the members.
