Yes this is the site. It covers most states. I live in NM and they didn't have it, so I did SD because I have a lot of Native American friends up there and know a lot of the state has less money than a lot of other states. So there still may be states that need some and you still have time to make some.

Thanks for the info. I just found out that in Ohio I have a few days left before they have to be sent out. I am going out tomorrow to get the yarn, and am going to try to get at least a couple of them done.

That's great, Ohio is actually where I worked with these kids. Cleveland area, but I wanted to do SD this time.

WoW!!! Just to let you know, I ran to Walmart today and got the yarn, found out I have about three days to get them in the mail, so am crocheting furiously when I'm not on here. Again, thanks for all the info, and am glad I can do my part to help!

That's great, every scarf helps. I just wish I was able to be at their games. That would be so rewarding.
