Quilt and Pillow Request
The Operation Kid Comfort program offers quilts for children ages six and under and pillows for children ages seven to eighteen of deployed servicemen and women.
To receive your FREE quilt, please complete an online application and attach photos that will help your child(ren) cope during their parent's deployment. Every quilt or pillow must have a picture of the deployed spouse or parent in uniform. No pictures of children by themselves, please. Thank you.
In order to be eligible for this program, we will need to confirm deployment status. You can either:
1. Stop by the Southeast Armed Services YMCA on the second and fourth Friday of every month between 4-5 p.m. and present a copy of the deployment orders to the quilter lead on site.
2. Email a copy of the deployment orders to [email protected] Please make sure to black out SSNs for OPSEC.
As all materials and services are donated, there are no fees for this program. Quilts normally take 2-3 months to complete for production. Families will be notified via email when they are completed. They can be picked up on the second and fourth
Friday of every month between 4-5 p.m. Any questions, please email [email protected]. Thank you!
