I dont mean to be rude, but I hope they have more modern sewing machines than the old Singer machine in the photo..!
Hi Sara, Thank you for your comments. We accept machines of all ages, makes and models as long as they are in good working order. Our volunteers check over the machines and ensure that they do indeed run well before we pass them along to someone new. Quite often, machine recipients are so happy to receive a machine that is just like one they may have lost in a hurricane, earthquake or flood and it’s like a gift to pass something familiar along and have it run well.
Best,
Margaret
