Breakthru House Note cards
Breakthru House, Inc. has started a cottage industry making note cards!! Through our cottage industry the women of Breakthru House attain skills that build their resumes and their self-esteem. The cottage industry concept came out of the creation of the Breakthru House quilt which was stitched by two volunteers and twelve recovering women. Each of the women chose one of the principles corresponding to the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous: Hope, Honesty, Faith, Courage, Integrity, Willingness, Humility, Love, Discipline, Perseverance, Awareness of God, and Service. The center square depicts the never-ending road to recovery.
To learn more about the Breakthru House Quilt, watch this 5 minute broadcast from channel 11 news!
To raise support for the cottage industry and Breakthru House, we are selling note cards with pictures of each of the 12 step principles, the whole quilt, and the center square.
We are also selling lovely floral note cards by Wayland Moore, a local Atlanta artist.
The note cards are $10 for 10 cards. You can choose how many and which note cards you want in your pack of 10.
Please support the work of the women at Breakthru House by ordering note cards! To order note cards, please click on the quit picture or call our administrative line.
