Quilts for Kids, Inc. is a 501 (c)3 non-profit, which in the past eleven years has donated tens of thousands of hand-made patchwork quilts to seriously ill children and children of abuse.  If you already quilt for QFK, thank you!  If not, please consider visiting the website, www.quiltsforkids.org to learn more about what we do.

In our experience, quilters are the most generous people anywhere, always using their skills to help others, and we realize that you are all involved in charitable efforts, worthy causes, all.  But if you would like to help Quilts for Kids by making a comfort quilt (just approximately 38”x45”), you may visit our website to order a free kit or you can make a quilt from your own stash, which is particularly welcome!

We like to say we turn tears into smiles because that is literally what happens when a child receives a hand-made patchwork quilt from one of our volunteers.  Seriously ill children are comforted, and their families uplifted by the thought that someone cares enough to create a beautiful gift to help them through critical and difficult times.

Every day, we receive notes from patients’ families and from hospital personnel expressing their heartfelt thanks, and telling us how much the quilts mean to the kids.  So, please, when you can find the time, join the QFK staff, quilters one and all, in making a difference in a child’s life.

Thank you, Linda, Nancy, Cindi, Kristin, Sally and Pam
