Seniors group stitches blankets for wildfire evacuees
A group of Winnipeg seniors is providing comfort for wildfire evacuees in the city. A group of Winnipeg seniors is keeping busy by stitching together blankets for wildfire evacuees from across the province. Bonnie Morris, a member with Blanketing Manitoba, said that she wanted evacuees at shelters to 'feel a little more comfortable' and came up with the initiative. Morris said the group is made up of approximately 30 seniors. They make between 300 and 400 blankets a year on average, all of which are donated to 20 local charities. 'To be given a special blanket that you know somebody has spent the time to make for you, I think it would warm their hearts,' Morris said. Roughly 17,000 people from northern Manitoba are being evacuated due to ongoing wildfire danger, with many expected to come to Winnipeg. Blanketing Manitoba has been around since 2002 and gathers twice a month at Good Neighbours Active Living Centre to knit, crochet, sew and quilt blankets.
