Give When Possible

There are many underprivileged people who need our help.  It is up to us to help our fellow man. There are many ways in which you can help.  If you can not help with money, how about time, fabric, quilts, thread? Every little bit counts.  In case you are not sure if your efforts are appreciated, just read what a visitor had to say about your efforts. 

Hello wonderful lady,

I never knew who it was that made our nephew a "quilt" and one for his lil sisters...but after reading about the quilts, it suddenly struck me...I had no one to thank!! Our Chad was buried with it....and until the day it went into the earth with him...or as like I like to say on his way through to his way to heaven...he was tuggin his sweet lil quilt. Thanks to all of you that do these wonderful acts of kindness. I have lots of time to call my own now...and I was just just thinking if maybe I can join something like this. Could you let me know what I can do?? And, to you, and all the others that have put all the time into those treasures...from one family here, you have our many thanks and our memories of our "Chad" all wrapped up in "his" quilt too :o)

The Organizations

We have added a couple of organizations that could use your help. And we will add more in the coming months.   However, because CompuQuilt can not guarantee the validity of any organization listed on these pages we request that as a precaution, you check with the person or organization before sending any donation.


Project Linus

Project Linus is a 100% volunteer non-profit organization with a two-fold mission:

First, it is our mission to provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new, handmade blankets and afghans, lovingly created by volunteer "blanketeers."

Second, it is our mission to provide a rewarding and fun service opportunity for interested individuals and groups in local communities, for the benefit of children.

Please visit http://www.projectlinus.org/index.shtml  to learn more about the project.


Quilts of Valor Foundation

The mission of the QOV Foundation is to cover ALL war wounded and injured service members and veterans from the War on Terror whether physical or psychological wounds with Wartime quilts called Quilts of Valor (QOVS).

This foundation is not about politics. It's about people.

Please visit  http://www.qovf.org/ to learn more about the project.


Marine Comfort Quilts

The Marine Comfort Quilt group makes a special memorial quilt for the next of kin of the soldiers killed in Iraq, for ALL branches of the service. We need donations of 12.5 x 12.5 inch quilt blocks signed and with a message of love and hope for the families who are grieving. Each quilt is made of 30 quilt blocks from 30 different people in the U.S. This project was started by Jan Lang and is run by her and Ava Tomson.

Please visit www.marinecomfortquilts.us to learn more about the project.


A B C Quilts

From the ABC Quilt Site: ABC Quilts give love and comfort to babies born with AIDS, abandoned to the care of hospitals. Quilters are still the lifeblood of ABC Quilts and we couldn't do what we do without the thousands of volunteers all over the world who make quilts. We estimate that there are 14 million quilters in the USA alone. Can you imagine the difference we could make if every one of them gave one quilt and one dollar? Visit the National ABC Quilt site at:
 http://www.abcquilts.com/  or to contact city and state:
Local Area & Zone Coordinators


For New Babies

I make quilts for the new babies at our pregnancy resource center and if anyone can make baby quilts it would be wonderful.  The gal that got me into this comes here each week for quilt class and picks up any baby things I've made.  If someone doesn't have the time to make a quilt, they can always send fabric.  Just send them to me.   Cheri Dahlstrom - 1815 Shadyside - Cadillac, Michigan 49601 email Cheri at lee2@netonecom.net for more information.


For Cancer Patients:

I was visiting quilting sites to try to gather up support for a charity I'm helping....Victoria's Quilts. We make quilts for cancer patients....and lots of quillows for patients to take with them to chemo treatments (which make you very cold) I was hoping to gain some help in the quilting community in finding anyone across the country who would be willing to help us by making tops, lap size quilts, blocks, most anything. I also send quilts out around the country to cancer patients of all ages.

Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation

I am a volunteer with Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation. They are best known for turning donated wedding gowns into granting wishes for men and women who are dieing of breast cancer. Some of the gowns received are too damaged to sell but make beautiful quilts, which are then sold to grant wishes.

Each person or group participating in our nationwide quilting contest receives 12 damaged gowns and returns one queen sized or larger quilt for the contest. The remainder of the fabric is theirs to do with as they wish. We have been told this is actually enough fabric for three quilts.
