Monthly Raffle Basket

We have a raffle basket at each monthly meeting.  Each month a different member donates the basket and tickets are $1.00 each.  The money collected is donated to Aunt Mary's Storybook Project, a program that allows incarcerated parents to reach out to their children by audio taping a book and a personal message, which is mailed to their child.  $25 allows a mom to audio tape a book for each of her children.

Baby Quilts

Teen Parent Connection works with adolescent parents and their babies to promote self-sufficiency.  Individual Guild members and Bees make quilts to donate to the teen parents.  A representative of Teen Parent Connection was at our March meeting to receive our yearly donation of quilts.  Here are a few of them:

Quilt Show Charity

The Guild hosts a bi-annual quilt show.  Proceeds from the raffle quilt(s), raffle baskets and silent auction are donated to a charity.  Guild members are able to suggest charities, which are voted on by the entire membership to determine the charity for the current show.
