New or Gently Used Blankets- to be reworked and embroidered

Lip Balm
Life Savers- any variety


My name is Gianna and I have started my Gold Award Project for Girl Scouts called “Cuddles for Chemo”.  The objective of “Cuddles for Chemo” is to give comfort and support to patients undergoing infusion therapy by making a cuddly blanket with words of encouragement embroidered on them.

The blankets will keep the patients warm and cuddly during chemo
Additionally, each patient will receive a handmade “Patient Care Bag” which will include hand and body lotion, lip balm, life savers and a card sending hugs!

Please bring any items for donation when you come to one of our events or contact us about a donation.  

Thank you for helping me work towards completing my Gold Award


Hugs and Cuddles

A company is making telephone calls to consumers.  They will tell you that they are calling from Windows or from your server provider…. This company will tell you that you have malware and viruses on your computer and it is their duty to call you and clean it up.  Do NOT let them have access to your computer.  They will tell you that you are on their server and they can see your computer problems.  Unless you are paying a monitoring system, nobody has this type of access to your machine.  They can be very convincing.  If you are convinced that they are legitimate then hang up and call your Internet provider directly.  Microsoft does not call consumers to tell them that they have viruses.
The scam is that the person calls to convince you that you have viruses on your machine.  If you agree with them then they transfer you to a second person.  The transfer gives them more legitimacy of being a support center.  This second person will try to talk you into allowing them to connect to your computer.  If you agree, then they will transfer you to a third person.  The third person will actually make the connection to your computer.  They run some commands that are unrelated to virus scanning but it looks impressive when you start seeing a bunch of information flowing across your screen.  They will then try to get you to agree to pay them to fix the problem.  If you agree then you are transferred to a fourth person who I presume will take your money, run something across your screen so you think that they are “fixing” the problem and maybe even drop a virus on our machine for future use.
Although this is a scam and they take your money it is difficult to stop them. They did not hack into your system, you gave them permission to enter.  They did not “steel” your money, you willingly gave it to them.  If a phone number is displayed on your caller ID, it looks like the United States but they are probably in another country.  My best advice is to be on your guard and report them to your phone company as well as you Internet provid
