The Pella Area Quilters Guild donates quilts to various groups locally & globally. These organizations then gift the quilts to anyone in need of the comfort of a quilt. 

Materials and services for the donation quilts are provided by the maker, PAQG and a grant from Pella Community Foundation Grant. 

In 2025, as of October, 68 Quilts had been donated to Quilts of Valor, Habitat for Humanity, Crossroads of Pella, and the Department of Human Services for foster children.
