Richmond Workshop: Important Masking and Capacity Information

March 19, 2023

At our meeting today, the Board agreed to change the masking requirement to “optional” for all volunteers and members.  We will no longer collect contact tracing data and there will not be a capacity limit except for that implemented by the Henrico Fire Department.

As always, we request that you do not come to the workshop if you are feeling unwell, have a temperature or if you have been in the company of someone who has been unwell.

The Richmond workshop, located at 1114 Westbriar Drive in Henrico, is open for members to come in to sit and craft during regular hours; 10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday.  Please do not enter the workshop after hours.

It is important to note that the workshop cannot accept mail. Please send any inquiries for information or how to make donations to fromtheheartstitchers@gmail.com .

Thank you!

…in a Starbucks coffee shop in 2001, to our close to 2,000 member base today, the volunteer organization From the Heart continues its charitable mission.

From the Heart is involved in numerous projects, from making chemo hats for local cancer centers, preemie baby hats for the tiniest of our recipients, sleeping bags and warm mitten sets for the homeless in the Richmond community.

From the Heart volunteers are constantly finding new opportunities to help, and encourage anyone who knows of an unmet need in the community to please bring it to our attention.

We invite anyone interested in joining our cause to join us by email, web site, or check the latest newsletter for our schedule and just show up!
