I am a member of www.projectlinus.org in NC. Our chapter will furnish the fabric, backing and batting to anyone who will make the quilt. We also have quilt days in which we get together and cut, piece and layer quilts for those who just want to tie-tack and bind.

Binky Patrol and Project Linus, which every is in your area. Binky started on the west coast and Project Linus started on the east coast. They do "comforting covers for kids in crisis", ie Hospitals, Foster Care, Police Departments (for kids they run into), Homeless Shelters, missions

I have been making quilts for the "american hero" organization. These are given to the injured soldiers and each and everyone admitted to the hospital is given a quilt.
This is a wonderful organization that gives back to the soldiers fighting for us.

I have a "Good Neighbor House" near me that supports families that are out of their homes, working and trying to get their feet on the ground. I have donated a good deal of clothing and books to them. Quilts are next - along with knitted scarves. The other thought is to contact your area department of human services and donate to women's shelters. Those children and moms always need some extra love.
