Click on the Heading "projects" to see the following:
OQC provides small quilts (3’ x 5’ finished) to comfort our Wounded Warriors who are medically
evacuated to a higher level of care, as well as for those troops who are sick or injured and recovering
in place. We have specific project requirements and ask that you follow them closely.
If you have time, please check out this worthwhile group.
God Bless our Service Personnel.
