Volunteer work and quilting

I volunteer at church activities which include but not limited to feeding the homeless, work on committees and provide emotional support for those in need. I am currently applying for a health initiative which will address the health needs of residents in Alameda county.

I am a beginner quilter and I'm considering making quilts for the infants in the NICU.
