On-Line Shopping Benefits QOVF!

 



Beginning TODAY - You will have a wonderful opportunity
to help the Quilts of Valor Foundation and have fun
shopping some of your favorite sites at the same time. 

May 9th through May 16th is the F+W Sales Event that will benefit QOVF.  For ALL purchases made from the following companies on those dates, the QOVF will receive 10% of the proceeds! 


Share this info with everyone you know, the more shopping these sites the merrier!

Shopping carts filled with books, patterns, videos, notions or fabrics will deliver a great message of support for QOVF, so be sure to urge all your quilting, sewing, knitting, beading and crafting friends to take part in the event by shopping!

F+W Media is the NY City based content and e-commerce company that recently acquired the Fons&Porter and Keepsake brands.  David Nussbaum, CEO of F+W (who now proudly wears a 2014 QOVF lapel pin) decided to celebrate their company’s acquisition by scheduling the on-line benefit event.  Nussbaum said, “ We recognize what QOVF does for America’s veterans and and we want to help, too.  In the past, we’ve benefited other non-profits such as the Susan B. Komen Foundation with such sales.  Now we are eager to help Quilts of Valor Foundation.”
