The charity committee of the MMQG was formed in the summer of 2015 to use our skills and give back to the community. Though growth has been slow, we have completed and donated quilts to the MN Mitochondrial Association, to a family fundraiser event to raise money to pay medical bills for a serious illness, two quilts and extra blocks to the #quiltsforpulse in Orlando, sent blocks to #quiltsforpeace to Dallas, and are currently completing quilts for a family in St. Paul who lost a member due to a violent act.

Quilters are generally a very sensitive and compassionate group. MMQG is no different and we feel the need to give back to our community, both locally and nationally. We hope to continue this giving and expand our donations to others as we continue this very important work.
