Polly Allen on CERF+:
I first heard about CERF+ about 15 years ago at an ACC show in San Francisco. Having been an avid supporter of craftsmen while living in the Southeast, I was excited to hear about an organization whose programs would benefit craftsmen across the nation. I happily handed over an additional $1,000 for Pamela Hill’s spectacular quilt. Fast forward to the present, I have just begun my second term on the CERF+ board and continue to be impressed with how this small organization has been able to expand its programming and how it can make such an important difference in the lives of craftsmen when they need it most.
