I make one or two string blocks tops for HeartStrings Project, they quilt them and give them to charities of their choosing or I keep the top, quilt it myself and donate it to my Guild's Giving Closet. Guild distributes quilts at Christmas or as the need arises to local families, churches, hosptials, fund raisers, etc.
I make one or two twin size quilts for veteran's who live in assisted living type homes.

I'm a coordiantor for my Guild's Project Pillowcases and we make lots of bright and cheerful pillowcases for kids in hosptials. We a part of Con Kerr Cancer (conkerrcancer.com) and our pillowcases are distributed to kids in hospitals in New Jersey, Manhattan, NY and Philadelphia, PA. We also set aside a bunch for Guild's Giving Closet and local Food Pantry as pillowcases can be a extra little gift for many who don't get much for Christmas or their birthdays, for a local child or family experiencing problems, ie. a fire, lost of job, illness.
