Anonymous dress intake

An offline volunteer atelier
Crafting care, one stitch at a time.
Threads of Comfort helps adult volunteers prepare materials, organize craft nights, review safety and quality, package carefully, and plan respectful handoffs—without accounts, ads, analytics, tracking, or automatic transmission.
A planning companion for careful volunteer preparation
The app is designed for compassionate, organized volunteer preparation connected with Analane's Angel Apparel. It offers original planning tools for anonymous donated-material notes, adult workshop roles, supplies, tool safety, second-adult review, clean packaging, and permission-before-travel reminders. Current organization and receiving-facility instructions always take precedence.

Small-parts control
