GET INVOLVED
Here is an opportunity to do something that will
Impact The Community!
Help Don make a difference
There are many ways to volunteer,
from walking door to door to hosting fundraising events.
Here are ways you can help:
BECOME A
MEMBER
There are no dues for our local chapter. However, in order to be a voting member of our chapter, volunteers must join the National Quilt of Valor Foundation and pay $10.00 annual dues.
Our group meets the first Wednesday of each month at 10:30am at Satin Stitches, 705D Vandiver Drive, Columbia, MO.
We would love to have you attend the next meeting/work day!
REQUEST A QUILT
Any active service member or veteran with an honorable discharge is eligible to receive a Quilt of Valor.
A Quilt of Valor cannot be a surprise. The service member or veteran must agree to receive the quilt and provide some information about their service. You should gather the below information and then complete a nomination form.
-
Full Name (and nickname)
-
Address

Phone Number

Email Address
-
Branch(es) of Service
-
Beginning/Ending Years of Service
-
Rank at Discharge

Any other information the veteran cares to share
You may visit qovf.org and enter the information online. Or, you may access a fillable nomination form below. You can type into this form, save it and email it to us. Or, print it, complete it by hand and return it.
We make every effort to award Quilts as soon as possible after receiving a nomination. However, depending on our supply of completed Quilts, it might take a few months.
MAKE A
DONATION
The warmth felt by a quilt evokes an emotional and physical response that Veterans have not always been able to express.
Mid-Missouri Quilts of Valor relies totally on donations and fundraising to make the quilts that are awarded to our area veterans and service members. A quality quilt can cost up to $300.00 each.
All donations of cash, fabric, and other supplies are greatly appreciated. Click below to learn more about how to donate to Mid-Missouri Quilts of Valor.
