The Knights of Columbus joined VA Augusta's Blind Rehab Veteran patients and staff, the Blind Veterans of American Augusta chapter, and other supporters for a Quilts of Valor ceremony Wednesday at VA's uptown campus. The Knights of Columbus members presented handmade quilts to Veterans as part of the Quilts of Valor Foundation program. The high-quality, handmade quilts are awarded to a service member or Veteran who, according to the Foundation, “has been touched by war” in recognition of their sacrifice and service.
