A post by Regina McCarthy:
We are so pleased to share this story about our Mother and the many charitable works she performs in our community. Along with the many members of her quilting guild they have been creating these wonderful gifts for the Palliative Care Unit at Brother Jason’s hospital here in St. John’s and recently provided us with this update.
To date we are very pleased to report we have accepted from our members and delivered to a very grateful Palliative Care Unit at the Miller Centre in St. John’s, Newfoundland some 15 beautiful quilts. Donna Mactavish, our President, Outreach Committee members: Karen Martin and Regina McCarthy visited the Unit just before Christmas and brought the quilts that were finished to the unit. The staff were delighted and before we left the unit they had put a quilt on one of the beds for a patient arriving that evening.
If you would like to become involved with this program please contact any of our members or via the McCarthy’s Party Tours office at 709 579 4444
