Central School District 51

Knit for a Cause students have been learning how to knit while also giving back to the community. The group recently made a donation to Supportive Living of Washington in order to help spread some joy to the residents. Knit for a Cause donated 5 knitted pumpkins and 17 coasters for them to enjoy this autumn! Way to go knitters! #celebratecentral51
