Community/Service Projects
We are deeply committed to serving our community through a variety of heartfelt service projects that bring comfort, care, and support to those in need. One of our special outreach programs is HUGS, where members lovingly create handmade shawls that provide warmth, encouragement, and a “hug” to seniors living in assisted living and senior care facilities. We also make quilts for babies and foster families, offering handmade gifts that bring comfort, security, and a sense of love during important and sometimes difficult times in life.
Another project close to our hearts is Quilts of Gratitude, where we design and present patriotic quilts to veterans as a way to recognize their service, sacrifice, and dedication to our country. Each quilt is carefully crafted with gratitude and respect for the men and women who have served.
Community service is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that handmade items carry kindness, compassion, and connection, and we work hard to use our talents to make a meaningful and lasting impact in the lives of others throughout our community.
