About

Crafting for Cancer is a UCLA crochet club that makes beanies for children with cancer through the Jessie Rees Foundation, which packs them into its JoyJars. Members meet on Wednesday evenings, and board members teach beginners; supplies are free, with an optional fee for materials to take home. The club also crochets keychains and small stuffed animals to sell at quarterly fundraisers, giving all proceeds to cancer support groups in Southern California. It reports 427 beanies donated over the 2022-23 year.
