Donations to Firehouse Quilts help us purchase quilting fabrics and rolls of quilt batting needed to create quilts for children and patients in crisis throughout Colorado. As a nonprofit, Firehouse Quilts relies solely on donations and grants to continue our mission of providing comfort and hope, one quilt at a time.
Don Moseley, Executive Director of Ralston House, shares that the quilts donated by Firehouse Quilts have a profound impact on the lives of the child victims who come to Ralston House. Wrapped in love and care, these children feel heard, seen, and supported.
Craig Hospital shares that the quilts donated to their hospital make so many people feel loved and brighten their days.
Firehouse Quilts is a non-profit group of volunteers that makes and donates snuggle quilts to children and adults in crisis through Colorado fire departments, hospitals, victim advocate offices, shelters, and human services organizations.
In 2003, Firehouse Quilts was organized to serve local fire departments. Today, the organization provides quilts to several fire departments, as well as more than 30 human services agencies, hospitals, and shelters throughout Colorado.
Firehouse Quilts is powered by more than 60 dedicated volunteers who make and donate over 2,000 quilts each year. Since 2003, over 25,000 quilts have been donated to people in need.
Volunteers gather for one Sew Day each month and also work on quilts in their homes throughout the year. Board members and volunteers deliver quilts to agencies throughout Colorado in response to their requests, ensuring that quilts reach children and patients when they need them most.
