I have been volunteering for this organization for some time now and it is a wonderful charity. It is especially nice to have small projects that can be done fairly quick and easy.
From the official site~
Angels for Hope is a nonprofit organization that offers free crocheted angels for anyone in need of hope.
We attach a small card with the angel to say to an injured or ill person, you are not alone, others do care,
and you are in our thoughts and prayers.
At your request we can let it be known that you requested the item.
In addition to crocheted angels, we also offer butterflies and smiley faces
