Question about knitting for charity

[rokeon]

I'm brand new to knitting, but I learned when I got into making chainmail that my ideal project is not one that has an overly firm due date; I'm the sort of person who starts a project, forgets it exists for six months, then finds the supplies buried under a stack of books and sits down to finish the whole thing in two days without sleep. So I'm looking for charity programs that either accept donations continuously or reoccur every year.

I can find a million search results about charity knitting, but some of them (like helmetliners for soldiers) seem to be defunct and others are just hard to judge from their webpages. Does anybody have any organizations they'd recommend?

Two thoughts:

- your LYS, if you have one, might know; try asking next time you're in.

- Where I live hospitals take donations of knitted hats and cardis for babies. this might also be the case where you live. There tend to be vaguely specific requirements (around materials, sizes, etc) so have a look around?
