As OakBend Medical Center’s largest annual fundraiser, Patchwork of Life brings together our community, dedicated staff, and generous supporters from Fort Bend County, Wharton County, and beyond. At the heart of the event is a beautiful commemorative quilt, created from personalized quilt squares purchased in honor or memory of loved ones.

Since its inception in 2013, Patchwork of Life has grown into a beloved tradition, made possible through the generosity of sponsors, donors, quilt square purchasers, auction bidders, volunteers, and more! Year after year, your support helps make this special evening one of our community’s most meaningful celebrations of philanthropy.

Funds raised through Patchwork of Life directly support OakBend Medical Center and are allocated to departments based on their greatest needs.
