Is that too late to get them sent to you so you can send them with the quilts? I'll also tell them about your need for quilt tops or quilts. You can PM me with your answer & what the deadline would be too. Hopefully, we can help you out.

Bonnie,
We've talked about this before, and I thank you for asking again. Many have offered pillowcases, but actually most of the men in this location don't even have pillows for their heads as their footlockers with personal/non-essential items like pillows have been held up since July in Pakistan due to massive flooding there. It's incredible! Some are sleeping on their balled up jackets.
So, we've opted to only focus on and pay to ship quilts at this time.
I do so appreciate your offer, though!
