Outreach
The Orlando Modern Quilt Guild has a strong history in supporting the greater Orlando community through outreach programs.
2025 Featured Program: Grace Medical Home
Grace Medical Home opened in 2010 with a goal to provide the highest level of health care to the low-income, uninsured in Orange County. Adult and pediatric patients receive comprehensive and ongoing primary care. Their medical history is known and their care is coordinated with specialist physicians, dentists, mental health counselors, spiritual care volunteers, ancillary services and social/community services.
Part of the commitment to comprehensive care at Grace Medical Home is to screen patients for exposure to adverse childhood experiences and trauma. This assessment is then used to identify interventions and therapies that are included in the patient’s care.
The Orlando Modern Quilt Guild wishes to provide quilts to be gifted to both adult and pediatric patients at Grace Medical Home to support this program. Members can make a quilt or pick up a quilt kit (top, back and batting) at one of our general meetings.
Ongoing Community Outreach Projects
We have several projects that carry from year to year - there is no shortage of ways to get involved!
Take-Home Kits
Quilt top, back, and batting are provided - they just need to be quilted and bound. Kits are brought to our meetings, feel free to pick one up to complete it!
​
These quilts are donated both to our ongoing outreach partners and as a response to calls for quilts received in the wake of natural disasters and tragedy.
Dog Bed Stuffing
Orange and Seminole County animal shelters accept donations of dog beds stuffed with scraps. Bring bagged scraps to our General Meeting to contribute!
