Hurricane Sandy Quilt Relief
*
I don't even know how to start writing this newsletter.
The events of the past week have been so unbelievable.
I will start by saying - for all of you affected by Hurricane Sandy - our most sincere thoughts and prayers go out to you and your families, and your communities.
We have been inundated with messages from all over the US and indeed around the world, expressing concern, and asking "how can we help?"...and we are humbled at how many have reached out to us, asking us to coordinate another quilt drive for the hurricane victims.
The answer is - yes of course we will coordinate another disaster relief effort.
I have asked the director of Mission of Love to help us again, and Kathy has agreed.
So tonight I am issuing a challenge to our friends, customers, our guild contacts, and anyone else who wants to help:
We are going to collect and distribute 5000 quilts to those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
We will work to make sure that the quilts go to those most drastically affected by the hurricane's destruction.
Right now almost all of my east coast contacts are dealing some difficult aspect of post-storm trauma.
Some are "just" dealing with no power, no heat, no water, no food and no gas.
All of this with another storm bearing down on the area.
Others have had their cars smashed, their boat washed out to sea, and the worst so far is one of our industry's beloved talents has had her house smashed by a tree...but they escaped with their lives.
Another contact had a neighbor killed by a falling tree.
They all say - they feel so lucky not to have sustained the devastation suffered by their neighbors.
From what I am hearing from my east coast contacts, the destruction and power outages are so widespread, that we can't possibly comprehend the scope of the situation.
As this quilt drive comes into focus, as I get in touch with my various industry contacts,
I will update this page daily. There will be another detailed update in my Creative Nudge on Tuesday night, so watch for that as you stay up to watch
Election Returns.
(It is almost over - yeah!)
In case you are new to eQuilter, in addition to
raising over $1 million for charity over the years, we have coordinated many thousands of comfort quilts donated and delivered over the years for 9/11, Katrina, Haiti and
Japan tsunami survivors.
Feel free to
share this link for our project, with any individual or guild who you think might be interested in participating.
The bottom line is - yes you can start planning and making the quilts you'd like to donate to Hurricane Sandy victims.
Our humble and sincere thanks to those of you who have helped in the past, and those of you who will help with this effort.
sharing your Passion for Fabric...
Luana and Paul
