All proceeds benefit the Hospice Volunteers of Waldo County

This collection of quality quilts was made locally by our friends and neighbors of the Friendship Sampler Quilters of Belfast, Maine.

For over forty years, community members from Waldo County have met to slowly and carefully create a traditional quilt, a handmade item to last a lifetime.

When the Friendship Sampler Quilt Guild was founded in Belfast in 1985, members adopted the State Guild's purposes of fostering fellowship, sharing ideas, supporting the community, and helping to raise the status of quilting in Maine. Their goals also include education and demonstration.

Each completed quilt is then donated to a community organization or to an emergency need. These quilts have been donated to Hospice Volunteers of Waldo County to augment their annual fundraising efforts.

Hospice Volunteers of Waldo County is offering two supportive, compassionate opportunities this winter for anyone grieving the loss of a loved one. Both programs are free and open to the community.

Grieving Through the Holidays, held on Zoom, starting on Tuesdays, December 16, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The group will meet online to help navigate loss during the holiday season, which can feel especially difficult. This gentle, supportive online group offers a space to share, reflect, and find moments of steadiness during a challenging time. Pre-registration is required.

An in-person Winter Support Group starts on Fridays, January 9 through February 27, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and will be located in Belfast. This eight-week group provides a warm, welcoming environment to connect with others who are grieving. Participants will explore coping tools, share stories, and support one another through the winter months. Space is limited, and early registration is encouraged.

To register or learn more about either group, please contact Hospice Volunteers of Waldo County at 207-505-4434 or email [email protected]

For over 40 years, Hospice Volunteers of Waldo County has provided free, compassionate, non-medical support to individuals and families facing life-limiting illness, caregiving, and grief.
