Testimonials
Jaime, a patient at Craig Rehabilitation Hospital, said he was feeling like a broken man. He received a quilt from Firehouse Quilts and he wrote that he loved it. He also loved the fact that other people care how someone feels. Jaime enjoys the way the quilt makes him feel on a cool night.
Mission
Firehouse Quilts is a non-profit group of volunteers that makes and donates snuggle quilts to children/patients in crisis through Colorado fire departments, hospitals, victim advocate offices, shelters, and human services organizations.
Background Statement
In 2003, Firehouse Quilts was organized and served only local fire departments. They currently service 20 fire departments and over 22 human services departments, hospitals, and shelters. The group is made up of over sixty volunteers who make and donate over 1,600 quilts a year. Volunteers meet for one sew day a month, as well as work in their homes. Deliveries are made by the board members and volunteers when quilts are requested by agencies.
