Folks, I just heard back from my local contact and friend who lives out in Asheville, NC.  She said it was okay to announce this and put out the charity request. It gets very cold out west in the mountains.  They are currently in need and accepting new clean crochet and/or knit  caps/hats and gloves/mittens.  I recommend that these items be washed before sending if possible since some folks may still not be able to wash clothes.  If possible please use unscented detergents and/or fabric softener/dryer sheets (or don't use the fabric softener).  I believe the best would be to use machine washable easy to care for types of yarns, acrylics, plant fibers (cotton, bamboo, and/or cotton blends).  If you can please include a note static the material of the yarn used (for example if it's 100% acrylic)

Please be mindful of folks with allergies, so if using wool, please add a tied tag to the item made with wool and place it in a separate plastic (ziplock bag). 

Mailing Address for items: Address them to Mother Grove; Mother Grove, 70 Woodfin Pl. Suite 1, Asheville, NC 28801.

The Mother Grove temple is a federally approved 501(c)(3) non-profit church. All contributions to the Mother Grove are tax deductible. Mother Grove Goddess Temple is a sanctuary where people of all faith traditions may openly and safely celebrate the Divine Feminine.

Tiffany Hansen, I will e-mail you all this info too. I will be making a video on my YouTube channel where I go over all this and provide this information.  Please let me know if you have any questions. I don't know if you feel comfortable contacting Warm Up America and providing this information or if you rather have me try to contact Warm UP America and let them know.  I'm not sure where their stance is concerning religious (interfaith) organizations.
