Hazel Miller Foundation

Hazel Miller Foundation The Hazel Miller Foundation is a private, nonprofit foundation dedicated to the citizens of Edmonds and South Snohomish County, Washington.

Our grants are designed to serve non-profit organizations operating in Edmonds and South Snohomish County. As a young woman, Hazel moved to Seattle where she fell in love and married Morris Miller. Together they owned and operated a very successful business called Seattle Quilt Manufacturing Company, makers of the famous “comfy” sleeping bag, and after many years sold the business, retired, and en

joyed the last 30 years of their lives in Edmonds. They were avid salmon sport fishermen and committed members of the community. Hazel loved Edmonds so much that she wanted to give back to the community that brought her so much joy. When Hazel died in 2009, the Hazel Miller Foundation was created to benefit the people of Edmonds and South Snohomish County.

These funds helped recipients access hygiene services, commute to their jobs, and clean their clothes.

Bravo, Edmonds Unitarian Universalists!
