About HDCQ Guild
We are a small group of quilters whose primary focus is to make quilts and pillowcases for the children spending Christmas in San Bernardino County domestic violence shelters. The quilts are given to the children as part of the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department 'Gift of Love' annual event. In addition, we make quilts for the homeless warming center and senior wheelchair quilts.
We also have a selection of quilts set aside for disaster victims and other immediate needs. Everyone, young (older than 12 years) or older, with a desire to quilt, to learn how to quilt, and to give back to the community is most welcome to join us.
We are a 501(c)(3) organization.
