Recipient story

Seeking fabric, cotton & bulk wadding to make quilts for patients in aged care, end-of-life, or transitioning home
GIVIT
Many patients in aged care, end-of-life care, or those transitioning back to the community experience significant physical and emotional vulnerability. For some, their hospital stay may be their final chapter; for others, it’s a time of isolation, uncertainty, or financial hardship.

Receiving a handmade quilt during this time offers more than physical warmth, it brings comfort, dignity, and a sense of being cared for. Each quilt becomes a personal gift of compassion during what is often a very difficult journey.

To continue this heartfelt program, we are seeking support to purchase wadding in bulk and other essential sewing materials such as fabric and cotton. Your help ensures we can keep making these special quilts for those who need them most.
