The Angel Quilt Project was founded as the Angel Afghan Project on January 27, 2000 as a non-profit organization. Since that time, a growing number of quilters and stitchers have donated thousands of hand-made quilts to premature infants primarily in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Requirements to join this project are easy - have a desire to stitch a couple of panels per year.
The AQP relies on the goodness of the membership and corporate sponsors to continue with our work. If you would like to donate and wish a receipt for your donations, please include a SASE with your donation and the founder will send you one in return mail. All donations, large or small, materials or monetary are welcome and needed. It takes approximately $1 to send a quilt to a hospital. Members are asked to send what they can on a monthly basis as well. The link below is to the PayPal account for the organization, and it makes donating fast and easy.
