When you shop at Montavilla, you're doing more than just purchasing a sewing machine; you're joining our family. Over the years, we've created a huge community of sewing enthusiasts, hobbyists, DIY'ers, and small business owners who have gained a wealth of sewing knowledge and experience. We've also been lucky enough to partner with some organizations that share our same interest in helping individuals, organizations, or communities in need. Here are a couple of inspiring organizations that we help support:
The Quilts of Valor Foundation is a non-profit whose mission is to cover U.S. service members and veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor. With local chapters all over the U.S., Quilts of Valor volunteers donate fabric or help create quilts to present to veterans of all ages. Montavilla is proud to host the Portland, OR chapter, the largest in the U.S., with monthly meetings at our Portland, Beaverton, and Gresham locations.
