                 Wall Quilt Raffle Fundraiser ~~ ~ April 6 - May 30, 2021

Desert Valley Hospice Society (DVHS) is hosting a Wall Quilt Raffle fundraiser to support the programs and services they offer to the community.  Online ticket sales are April 6th –May 30th with the draw for the quilt at 9am on May 31st, 2021. 

"Into The Light"  wall quilt was designed, created, and donated to Desert Valley Hospice Society by South Okanagan artists Kathie Kirby, Bev Penny,  Gisela Carroll, and Leslie Forbes, students of Karen Thatcher.

Karen Thatcher (1957-2020) was a Canadian Master Quilter/Fibre Artist, former paramedic, traumatic brain injury survivor, and lung cancer patient from Rossland, BC.  She created beautiful art quilts portraying nature and donated these pieces to various organizations. Her first quilt won second place across Canada in 2014. Karen taught friends her special techniques. This is her legacy.
​
Desert Valley is very thankful for the donation of this beautiful handcrafted wall quilt as a fundraiser for our Society. 
Thank you for your support.

Raffle Tickets are $25 each or 5 for $100
