Charity Sewing and Crafts Projects

We are going to list as many charitable organizations that need sewing and crafts donations that we can find.  Some of the charities will need people to sew quilts, pillows, wheelchair bags, toys, dolls etc and some of the charities really need donations.

Our goal is to create a comprehensive directory of sewing, knitting, crocheting, and quilting charitable projects and organizations.  We hope that this will be a valuable resource for you to use to donate your time or extra sewing supplies.

If you have or know of a charitable organization that needs seamstresses or sewing supplies, please email us and we will look at your website and include your information on this page.
If you would like to share the stories about your groups sewing efforts for a charity and/or if you would like to include photos of your group sewing.  We would love to post those stories and photos for others to read and share.

Would you like to sew items to be donated to charities but are not sure what to sew?  Below is a list of Free Patterns for Sewers and Community Service Projects.  You can always contact the charity directly too.  Many times they offer free patterns on their websites for the items that they need donated.
