Wrapped in Love by Gruber’s We will be working with the local police station and making quilts for emergency foster care. We are creating this program to keep the police cars supplied with quilts for when children are taken out of their homes without any of their belongings. If you’d like to donate your time to make a quilt or donate an already made quilt, let us know. Your donation can bring a great deal of comfort and a feeling of safety to these children in such tough situations. If you have any questions, please give us a call.
