Charity Quilts
Northern Lights Quilt Guild
Process to Accept Requests for Charity Quilts
Requests would be compiled using a form that specifies:
- Requesting organization? (Must be a registered charity)
- Organization description and purpose.
- Number of quilts requested.
- What kind of quilt they would like.
- What size of quilt would they like.
- What they would use the quilt for.
- When do they need it by.
- Contact information (specific name, phone and email).
- Any special requests (like animals on the SPCA quilt, or color, etc.)
- Name of the guild member that is sponsoring the request.
These would be collected by the Charity quilt organizer and presented to
the guild membership twice a year.
Timing:
- Review with the memberships twice / year - October and February – only.
- The guild would then decide how many quilts they are willing to make in that half season - review, approve and then prioritize the requests.
- Approval of the request would be based on a vote - requiring positive support of two thirds of the current membership.
- Declined requests could not be submitted again for a period of one year.
- The guild member that sponsored the request would work with the Charity quilt coordinator to schedule and track the work.
- They would be the liaison between the guild and the charity organization.
