Charity QuiltingIn general, quilters have always been generous to a fault. Here, you can find information on how you can use your quilting to share with those in need. Programs (6) Top rated tips The Wrap them with Love Foundation | April 22 12:51 pm The Wrap them with Love Foundation accepts quilts as donations to give to needy children around the world. A quilt provides a practical item for children, as it is used for warmth. However, quilts also provide children with an emotional being they can latch on to. In many cases, these lovingly crafted quilts are the only possessions these children have. Donating a quilt lets these children know a person somewhere in the world cares about them. Sadly, this might be the only affection these children have seen in their young lives. Quilters Tips | Pepperell , MAHugs for Homeless Animals | April 22 12:53 pm An excellent charity program for quilters is the "Snuggles" project for Hugs for Homeless Animals. This program provides animal shelters with quilts to place in cages and kennels. These quilts provide comfort to cats and dogs who are often forced to sleep on steel bracing, hard plastic, or bare concrete. The "Snuggles" program allows dogs and cats in animal shelters a bit of comfort as they wait to be adopted. Hugs for Homeless Animals has general size guidelines for you to create your quilts to best fit in cages or kennels. Quilters Tips | Pepperell , MAQuilting for Charity | February 17 11:10 am When I quilt for a local charity, I take a digital picture, print it out and put as much information (name of group, who pieced the top, name of quilt, date and size)on a 3/5 card along with the picture. When someone wants me to do a quilt for them, I can open the album and show them the different quilts I have done for the community. They enjoy the fact that I help out for different charities and there are different quilts and colors to look and browse through. Mary Beth Moyer |
