This popped up in my reader this morning at Whip Up! You can crochet and donate a scarf for an athlete participating in the 2011 Winter Special Olympics in Minnesota. There will be 1,000 athletes and so far, the organization only has 99 scarves. Yikes! There are official Red Heart Yarn colors to use and general size guidelines but no specific pattern has to be followed. See all the details here:

Submissions need to be mailed no later that February 11. So break out those needles and hooks if you can help!
