Sponsor

There was no real sponsor for this episode, but you can find links to all the affiliates of the program on the Be a Booster page. Instead of highlighting a sponsor, I’d like to point you to another charity I just learned about. Stash dive for some cotton or majority cotton yarn, and knit or crochet some soap sacks for the local food pantry or homeless shelter! Soap S.A.C.K. has links to websites that will help you find a local place to donate, or you can send them in for them to donate.
