Dear Families and Friends,

 

 

 

 


Betty and dennis nielsen

Betty and Dennis Nielsen, recipients of last years Building Bridges Award, have continued to work tirelessly over the past several years with one goal in mind: to provide a unique quilt to all the families of 9/11 victims.  With the help of Churches, youth groups, and various other organizations, they have produced over 5,000 quilts, expanding their reach to the families of soldiers lost in the War on Terror.  These quilts provide a tangible comfort to many families and individuals.  We thank Betty and Dennis for their dedication, and wish them the best of luck in their noble effort.  For more information on the Nielsen’s Freedom Quilts, please visit their website.
