SCCQG Disaster Fund

Disaster Fund grant checks have gone out to the six affected guilds:  Santa Monica Quilt Guild, Westside Quilt Guild, Glendale Quilt Guild, Wandering Foot Quilt Guild and Camarillo Quilters Association. The guilds will help their affected members replace some of their sewing supplies and tools. 

Eaton, Palisades, and Mountain Fire Victims - Call for Quilts and Pillowcases for Kids.

The Camarillo Quilt Guild team has held their final distribution for quilts for the Mountain Fire Survivors. In the meantime, quilts are currently being distributed to the survivors of the Palisades and Eaton fires.  While we received a lot of quilts at Road to California, and many more since then, they have been distributed, and we need more!

We are requesting new quilts, lap size and bed size, which will be distributed at recovery events in the Palisades and Eaton areas. We're also collecting Pillowcases for Kids to distribute to the children who attended schools that were destroyed. 
 
Please email us at sccqgfire@sccqg.org, if you have quilts or pillowcases to donate.  We will work with you to help shuttle them to the correct location or provide a shipping address. We have some storage capability in the South Bay, Santa Monica, and Glendale areas. In addition, the Simi Valley Quilt Guild is also providing storage space.  However, currently, the quilts seem to find new homes on a regular basis through what we're calling the "everyone knows someone who knows someone that was affected network." Thus, storage hasn't been a big problem. 

Several of our Southern California quilt shops have offered to serve as “drop off” locations for your quilt and pillowcase donations. See the list below.  We will update the list of shops as others agree to participate. Please spread the word to your membership.

Next SCCQG Quarterly meeting - July 12, 2025 
Our meeting topic in July will touch on some of the subjects in our January meeting Money Matters program that we did not fully explore.  Our featured speaker will be Fred Duenas, CPA and formerly of the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, to chat about Sales Tax.  We will also discuss raffle registration and more.  Do you have questions about sales tax or other areas related to Money Matters for the guild?  Send them to Program Chair, Liz Pickering, at programchair@sccqg.org by June 27.
