Jo Ellis started a nonprofit crafting school in her small town, where she and others in the community use their different crafting skills like sewing, quilting, felting, and painting to make an impact in her small town.

She first saw overseas how teaching something like sewing could change the attitude, perspective, and even future of young women, so when she returned home, she wanted to impart that same idea in her community.
