A Victory Lap!!

It’s time to celebrate a victory lap as we thank all of our wonderful, generous quilters who have helped us uphold a longtime pledge.  When our founder Terry Hodskins dreamed of the Wrap-A-Smile mission, she pledged that we would make sure that every future Rotaplast patient would be wrapped in a handmade quilt at the time of their surgery.  Twenty three years later, we are still meeting that goal.

When the Covid pandemic struck, stalling overseas medical missions, we faced an uncertain future.  When would the Rotaplast doctors be able to resume providing care…..?  If we stopped collecting quilts, would our network remember WAS when we someday needed quilts again?

Fortunately the medical teams are back traveling the world, and every time we worry about whether we will have enough quilts, a surprise delivery arrives.  Generosity and goodness abound!

With heartfelt thanks I can report that we are now well supplied with WAS quilts well into the next year! Thank you to all our quilters who continue this project of international goodwill….sharing love and kindness, one quilt and one life at a time. 

Wishing all of you Happy Holidays and peace in the New Year. May our good works continue….
