FAQ
HOW DOES THE YARN DRIVE WORK?
*YARN DONATIONS ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED*
Compile a yarn donation from your stash, fill out this form, and mail your yarn to TNTP HQ! Our mailing address and instructions are on the form.
TNTP will receive and organize all yarn sent to us and use the yarn to create kits to donate and send to crafters to create items to donate or sell for donation.
WHO WILL BE RECEIVING MY YARN?
Some of the yarn will be used to create Craft Kits that will be donated to organizations, such as Free Arts NYC, whose mission it is to bring arts and mentoring programs to underserved youth. Project examples are Pom Poms and Tassels with Cardboard Looms, Friendship Bracelets, and Cardboard Loom Weaving.
Some of the yarn will also be used to donate to nonprofit organizations that work with crafters to create items to donate to those in need or create items to sell to donate to those in need.
If you work with or know of any organizations that might benefit from our Yarn Drive, please shoot us a note at hi[at]theneonteaparty[dot]com!
IS MY DONATION TAX-DEDUCTIBLE?
Your donation is not tax-deductible. We hope that the joy you'll be bringing to others (plus the added benefit of making room in your stash!) will be beautiful motivation enough to participate!
