THE "CUP OF COMFORT PROJECT"
The “Cup of Comfort Project" was conceived as a response to the escalating national mental health crisis, which has been further exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic. The primary objective of this project is to promote self-care and provide comfort through the therapeutic act of stitching.
