Snuggled in Hope Quilts: What do we do?
We create quilts and pillowcases !
Since 2013, Snuggled has provided a quilt for each camper.
In 2018 we added a pillowcase for each summer camper. We were also able to expand our giving by donating a quilt for each family at Spring and Fall Family Camps, and a pillowcase for each child that attended Fall Family Camps.
This year, 2019, we donated a total of
607 quilts and 766 pillowcases for campers and families . We could not do what we do without our volunteers and the generosity of donors.
Sadly, because of COVID-19, all camps for 2020 were suspended. However, we were still able to donate 425 pillowcases to be included in the "Camp -in-a-Box" that were put together and delivered to campers. We also donated several dozen fabric face masks to be used at camp as needed.
Volunteers help in all steps of the creation of the quilts and pillowcases from start to finish; donating fabrics, preparing fabrics by pressing, sorting and cutting; making kits, making pillowcases, quilt tops, backs, and bindings; tying or machine quilting the quilts, and adding the bindings.
Before being donated all quilts and pillowcase are laundered. Some of the volunteers do that for us.
Prior to campers' arrival days a crew of volunteers "dress" the beds with the quilts, and pillowcases.
You DO NOT have to know how to sew, or quilt, because, as you can see, there are numerous other opportunities and ways to help.
