| Impact Report | RESOURCE MANAGEMENT CREATIVE CRAFTING ON A BUDGET WORKSHOPS Twelve creative crafting classes were offered to a total of 128 participants with the objective of encouraging the development of homemaking skills on a limited budget. Classes included, Simple Snacks, Microwave Candy, No-sew fleece accessories, Tile stamping, holiday kissing balls, Card Stamping, Bean Bag Warmers, Recycled Card Ornaments, and Dream Box Gifts. Participants were provided with supplies and informed as to the actual cost of the supplies (all VERY reasonable), directions and encouragement. Discussion was focused on cost per serving, ingredient substitutions, recycling, different uses for completed craft projects and ideas for gearing crafts to kids. Upon completion of programs, 90% of participants reported they would create the snack/craft item again, 70% would involve their child/children in the craft project and 85% would use the snack/craft as a gift for someone else. |
