Helping Children in Need

“No child should live without a blanket of love”

 

Our mission is that no child of abuse goes without the comfort of a handmade quilt.  That they may know that someone loved them enough and energy

to provide them with the time it took to make that comforting gift.

 

These quilts are meant to secure the child with warmth and love in a world that is not always warm and safe. abuse.html

 

Each quilt is tagged with “I am loved!” so that each child knows that someone loves them enough to create for them this special gift.
