About Our Cause

It’s not lost on me that you are spending your precious time and money here. And I am incredibly grateful. But giving back to the community is important. This is why 10% of each individual quilt pattern sold is donated to a charitable cause. You can read about the chosen charity in each product description.

Each charitable cause aligns with The Water Spirit’s values, including:

Supporting survivors of domestic violence.

Domestic violence can take many forms. It can be physical, sexual, psychological, emotional, spiritual, financial and more. Are you in a relationship that makes you feel bad or afraid? Do you want to leave your partner, but feel unable to do so? Are you being stalked or harassed? Help is available.
