Common Ground of Fort Wayne

Common Ground of Fort Wayne Creating opportunities for volunteers of all ages and skill levels to share in Generosity Projects Our second project is Serving Our Soldiers.

We began as a 100% volunteer organization devoted to assisting newly resettled refugees adapt to the challenges of daily living in a new country. After years of teaching and helping them to become more responsible, we found some other areas that we felt needed to be addressed so the Generosity Projects were born! At this point in time, we have two programs.....the first, Griffin's Gift Project pro

vides blankets and quilts (fleece, knitted or crocheted) to orphanages or children in crisis worldwide. Our deliveries are made by mission teams of families traveling for international adoption. We have volunteers who collect white standard size pillowcases for us. After processing, they are imprinted with the picture of a deployed mom or dad and given to each of their children. Just another way a grateful nation can support our military families. We also provide "cool ties" for our deployed troops serving in the desert and "critter collars" for their canine counterparts! Other volunteers knit or crochet hat and scarves for our troops, some write letters or make cards. Some of the blankets made by the volunteers from Griffin's Gift are given to the military for use in relationship building. We are so thankful for the freedoms we enjoy and want to give something back to those who serve us so unselfishly.
