Sharing Warmth During the Holiday Season

For more than 20 years, Dianne Cooper has been part of our Luther Community in Bellefontaine, OH. During that time, she has shared a gift that many of her neighbors have come to recognize and appreciate. 

Dianne has made hundreds of afghans for friends and family over the years. In recent seasons, she began coordinating with our Service Coordinator to organize a holiday blanket giveaway for fellow members of Graceworks Housing Services’ Luther Community.

Each year around the holidays, neighbors are invited to select an afghan made by Dianne. The blankets are distributed as a simple way to share warmth during the winter months.

Many community members have expressed appreciation for the time and care Dianne puts into each piece. Her craftsmanship and consistency have made the blanket giveaway a meaningful seasonal tradition. Dianne’s generosity reflects the simple, everyday ways neighbors support one another across Graceworks communities.
