Donation Quilts

 

Members are encouraged to make tops and complete quilts at home to be donated to LifeMoves, a non-profit organization committed to ending the cycle of homelessness for families and individuals in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties.  These quilts are also donated to foster children in San Mateo County through the Children and Family Services Office.  The requested size is twin (approximately 65" x 80").  Members also have an opportunity to work on charity projects at guild-sponsored Bee Charitable and Zoom retreat events.  Quilt tops may also be donated.

Infant Baby Quilts

Members make little quilts from their “stash” to be donated to families in need. San Mateo Health Foundation can take about 20 quilts a month for the Bundle of Joy program for local families. We also give additional quilts to Loved Twice, a non-profit charity that supports disadvantaged babies in the greater Bay Area. Quilts should measure no smaller than 30" on a side and no more than 45" per side. Quilts must be pre-washed prior to your donation to remove any potential contaminates. Flannel backs are nice, but not required.
