Nomination for a Quilt of Valor

Anyone can nominate a Veteran or a Service Member for a Quilt of Valor.  Go to qovf.org - near the top in the red banner is a place to click Nominate.  You will be asked a few questions and then a form opens.  To be prepared, have ready the person's Name, Address, Phone, email if possible, Branch of Service and Rank (Pay Grade at Discharge), Dates of Service (year entered and year discharged), and Where served.  This information helps to verify that this person has not already received a quilt. Your information as Nominator is also required.  If you wish to make the quilt for this person, this will be the place to make note.  The nomination is then forwarded to the appropriate State Coordinator, who then refers it to the QOV group nearest to the nominee for award.  

This means that Yes, you can nominate someone from out-of-state!  One award was made to a veteran who lives in Canon City - he was nominated by his mother who lives in Texas. Another award was to a veteran who lives in Pueblo, but his nomination was made by his great aunt who lives in Arkansas.  Another was not for a veteran but for a soldier currently on active duty and stationed at Fort Carson.  And yet another nomination was for a veteran who served in the 1980s, who nominated herself.  Two on our wait list live not in Pueblo - one lives in Ft. Garland and one in Trinidad.  The State Coordinator will assign the nomination to whichever QOV group lives closest.
