The Rhinelander Lions Club recently made a donation to the Northwoods Hospice Quilters, a group of dedicated women who volunteer their time to create one-of-a-kind quilts for hospice patients, helping them to live the reminder of their lives in comfort and dignity. To date, these wonderful and amazing women have created and donated over 2,000 quilts, according to a press release announcing the donation.

The quilts, distributed by Ascension Home Care-Hospice Care, a charitable organization that provides comfort and support to people who have six months or less to live, are greatly appreciated by hospice patients and their families, the release states.

The Northwoods Hospice Quilters is funded entirely through donations.

"They do get some of the material donated to them, but they also need to get other supplies such as batting, bigger pieces of material and other materials to complete a quilt," the release states.

If you would like to donate or are interested in how you can help, contact Barb Oestreicher at 715-282-5956.
