Life, Love, Hope Quilt Challenge

The Results Are In! In March of 2006, Robert Kaufman initiated the “Life, Love, Hope Quilt Challenge” featuring the Joie de Vivre cotton quilting fabric collection by Luana Rubin. Over the past year, fifty cents per yard of the wholesale cost of this product was earmarked for The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, dedicated to preventing breast cancer and finding a cure in our lifetime by funding clinical and genetic research worldwide. As the fundraising effort came to a close in February of 2007, our original goal was to donate a minimum of $10,000.00 to this worthy cause. Robert Kaufman is proud to announce that our 2007 contribution will be $22,892.50 — more than twice our original goal!

Our thanks go out to everyone involved, from our suppliers to all those who participated in the Quilt Challenge and to anyone else who made a donation to this extremely important cause. Robert Kaufman would like to also thank BCRF for the Sparkler’s designation within their list of donating partners.
