1. If you are a quilter: You can use your stash of brightly colored kid-friendly fabric to create patchwork quilts of your own, (Remember they need to be sewn and quilted on a machine with lots of machine quilting so they hold up to all the washings they go through at the hospitals.) and donate them to us for nationwide distribution.
   
   Request a kit.
   
   
2. If you are community minded: Connect with your local chapter of Quilts For Kids and see how you can help them in creating and generating more quilts for children in need in your community.
3. If you are someone with a stash of fun child-oriented fabrics: Is there fabric taking up valuable space in your closet that you intended to use in a quilt or other craft project? Don’t feel guilty about not doing the project—donate it to us to be made into quilts for the children we serve. You can even take a tax deduction for this!  Send the fabric to headquarters or contact your local QFK chapter. Fabric has to be “new,” unused, and not clothing or draperies,etc.
4. If you don’t sew, but still want to help: ADOPT A QUILT. A financial donation of any sort will go toward shipping quilts to children at children’s hospitals across the country. It will also help fund us in purchasing fabrics for quilts for the more than 6 million children in children’s hospitals around the country. Although we are known for repurposing fabric samples and using them for quilts, thereby keeping the fabric out of landfills, there is just not enough donated fabric for us to gift quilts to all the children we serve.
5. Spread the word: You may think it a small gesture but spreading the word that Quilts For Kids is in need of fabric, funding and quilters will make all the difference in the world to us.
