The Depot Outlet has given $2,000 to Decorah Quilts of Valor to help pay for the material used to make the quilts for veterans.
It's the fourth grant Depot Outlet has given to the group since the start of the Decorah Quilts of Valor in May of 2014. The money has helped to give 167 quilts to veterans. 10 more will be given out at the VFW Hall at 3:00 p.m. on Memorial Day.
