Cottage Quilting prides itself in giving back to the community in which we live in.  It is really important to help those that are living here in the Okanagan.  We recognize that not everyone is as fortunate as us and we appreciate your help and support in giving back!  Join us this year will you?

This year looks so different and we know how important mental health awareness is.   If you don't know, Meagan has worked with not only women and children but also teens.  She worked closely with various groups in the past when she lived in Alberta and when she was approached by Foundry it was important to help the youth of BC as well.   They are our future.  Meagan has always felt strongly about helping women and children, especially those in our community.  Her vision of the quilting bee and circle is what she strives for.  We all need a little help, we all need a friend to lean on.   We can be that friend.  

We will continue to support the Karis Society and Foundry Kelowna

The Foundry - Kelowna is a province-wide network of integrated health and social service centres for young people ages 12-24. Foundry centres provide a one-stop-shop for young people to access mental health care, substance use services, primary care, social services and youth and family peer supports.  We are working with the Kelowna division.

Kelowna Foundry provides safe, non-judgmental care, information and resources, and work to reach young people earlier – before health challenges become problematic. Foundry brings health and social services together in a single place to make it easier for young people to find the care, connection and support they need
