What it is.
How to get involved.
Crochet and Knit patterns.
Afgan assembly tips.

Warm Up America! (WUA!) is an organization made up of volunteers whocreate handmade afghan blankets, clothing and accessories to help thosein need. These items provide warmth and comfort to people who have losttheir homes, fled abusive relations, or are being cared for inhospices, shelters, hospitals, and nursing home.

Volunteers donate their time to crochet and knit a 7" X 9" rectangle (or more). Sections are either joined by individuals or groups in a community and donated locally or sent to Foundation headquarters for joining and distribution.

The beauty of so many different participants is that a WUA! afghan resembles a patchwork quilt of many colors and textures, just as the participants and recipients represent the varied faces of America.
