The Second Chance for Life Foundation received a donation of almost $1400 in July 2011 in memory of Jean Loken, who had a heart transplant in 1995. The money was given by the Home of the Brave Quilt Project (HOTBQP), which makes quilts to present to the families of fallen soldiers who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Before her death in 2010, Jean had served as the Minnesota coordinator of this nation-wide project. Don Beld, founder of the HOTBQP, and Sandi Carstensen, its national coordinator, wanted to honor Jean's memory with this potholder quilt. Squares for the quilt were received from around the United States and abroad, and the quilt was assembled by Don. People donated $5 for a chance to receive the quilt. The quilt made its way to Minnesota where Kathie Simon Frank coordinated the drawing held in June 2011. Brad Leathers, who lives in California, received the quilt.
