Charity
The Vero Beach Quilt Guild is dedicated to helping our community in various ways. Along with donating a portion of the Quilt Show proceeds to a chosen charity, our members donate their time and materials to make hand-made items for a variety of local organizations. Those organizations include the Sheriff's Department, homeless and family crisis centers, and various health organizations.
Quilts, etc.
Our members make a wide range of sizes, color schemes, and types of quilts that are donated to local shelters and organizations. They also make stuffed animals and "Mondo" bags.
Fidget Quilts
Fidget quilts are small lap sized quilts that incorporate different textures, sounds, and tasks to keep hands busy. They are generally used for people with autism, Alzheimer's, or dementia, but can be used for small children and people with other cognitive and dexterity difficulties.
Placemats
We partner with Meals on Wheels and other soup kitchens to supply them with placemats, so the patrons have a nice place to eat their meals.
