Has anyone heard of an organization collecting quilts for the East Coast? If anyone hears of a reliable collection and distribution group please post the information. I have quilts ready to send but want to make sure they get to people who need the encouragement.

I won't be surprised if eQuilter has some ideas. They did quilt collections last year for Japan.

I am eager to hug too but it must be done carefully. A painful memory from Katrina is the truckloads of contributions that were shipped here - only to be dumped in church parking lots. There was nobody to receive and distribute so much was rained on and trashed. Let's watch the churches and civic organizations to see who is stepping up. Polly
They are organizing a collection/distribution of 5000 quilts. Details are sketchy but can be found here:
