What Inspired You to Make This?

We wanted to fundraise to help out the Kurdish Refugees in Lebanon. We saw that they were in need and wanted to help them. We also wanted to inspire the local community to be more sustainable by making their own crafts through cross-stitching and sewing. The Church Youth Group is the main organizer of this project and they wanted to make a change in the community through their own efforts.
