The Missouri 4-H Foundation will host a virtual quilt auction this fall. Proceeds can benefit a county or statewide 4-H program.

The foundation is seeking donations of handmade quilts of all sizes, either machine- or hand-quilted.

This year has been challenging for many 4-H clubs that have had to cancel local fundraisers because of COVID-19. This is one small way to help raise support locally and showcase the incredible artistry of 4-H volunteers, members and donors.

The silent auction runs November 16-22. A link to the online bidding site will be posted on the Missouri 4-H Foundation’s website and Facebook page. Visit fb.me/e/3hOyhBri4 for information and updates.

To donate a quilt, contact Chris Willow at willowc@missouri.edu or 573-882-2680. Quilts must be received by November 9, 2020, at the Missouri 4-H Foundation office, 109 Whitten Hall, Columbia, MO 65211.
