COMFORTS FOR CHILDREN (CFC) serves "at risk" children, birth through age 17, in Lane County, Oregon with the gift of a small quilt. Our primary focus is to comfort neglected and abused children suffering the pain of separation from familiar surroundings and belongings. We distribute our quilts through agencies that serve the public.
CFC has distributed 26,175 comfort and bunk-size quilts as of January 26,2012.
CFC is an all-volunteer effort. It is not a business. No one receives any remuneration for time and effort expended. Materials are donated.
CFC volunteer work sessions are every Thursday from 10am to 2:30pm at Campbell Senior Center, 155 High Street, Eugene, Oregon. Visitors and new volunteers are welcome!
Quilt kits may be checked out and finished quilts returned at Campbell Center any weekday between 10am and 4pm.
