Philanthropy & Community Service

Our quilter community is very generous. Throughout the year our members give their time and materials to produce quilts and pillowcases for donation to various charitable organizations. See below for a list of our current donation partners.

Quilt for Kids is a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing quilts to comfort children facing serious illness, trauma, abuse or natural disaster nationwide. You can use one of their pre-packaged quilt kits or provide you own materials. Check their website to see their specific requirements.

Ronald McDonald House Philadelphia supports families on their children’s healthcare journeys with a community of comfort and hope. They accept quilt or blanket donations which conform to their specific requirements.

Camp Erin® Philadelphia, a program of the David Bradley Children's Bereavement Program, is a free weekend bereavement camp for youth ages 6 to 17 who are grieving the death of a significant person in their lives.  It takes place in the summer and each camper is given a quilt to use and take home.
