OKC Quilt Request
Operation Kid Comfort Quilts are for children ages 6 and under (pillows ages 7 and older) of deployed service men and women. To receive a quilt, please complete the following form below. The first form is the Request and Release Form; the second form is the Photo Submission Form, which will ask for eight (8) photographs (less than 2 MB each) that will help the child(ren) cope during the parent’s deployment.
