FCQ Philanthropy
One of the main goals of the Faithful Circle Quilters is philanthropic projects. Towards this end, members are asked to annually make a quilt or blanket to contribute. Quilts and other items are collected by the Philanthropy Committee and these items are then distributed to various organizations.
In addition to quilts, the FCQ members have been generous contributors to many organizations over the years. Currently, the Philanthropy Committee receives and distributes quilts, children’s pillowcases, NICU heart pillows, preemie hats, pet beds, Christmas stockings, heart pillows for mastectomy patients, and chemo port pillows for chemotherapy patients.
