This beautiful quilt is being made to help raise funds for Camp Reach For The Sky (CR4TS).
With economic times, the 2009 camp program was almost cancelled due to lack of donations. Fortunately funds came thru and the camps were held this year. But to help with 2010 camp funding, this beautiful quilt is being created to help raise funds for CR4TS.
Since 1983, Camp Reach For The Sky (CR4TS) has provided children with cancer and their families and outdoor adventure that challenges the spirit and broadens the mind. This summer camping programs was founded to allow children with cancer the chance to be kids—an experience often taken away or put on hold by their disease—and give them a fun summer camping adventure while under medical supervision.
The Camp Reach for the Sky program is free of charge to the campers. Funding comes from donations made by the American Cancer Society.

I just stumbled upon this post for your quilt raffle. My kids attend the CR4TS and have received a beautiful quilt each year from Rosie's Calico Cupboard. I can't say enough about those quilts. They are so well made, and the kids just love the idea that they have their very own blanket.
I'd like to know more about your raffle. Can I share this link on my facebook page in hopes of helping you sell more raffle tickets?
