Our Mission
My Very Own Blanket is dedicated to warming the heart of every child and teen
​in the foster care system and in need with a handmade quilt or blanket,
giving them a feeling of comfort, security and most of all, a SMILE.  

Globally we connect diverse people, community groups, businesses and services through this volunteer opportunity and ministry with a gift that is comforting & familiar and youth in foster care can take with them from one home to another.  Handmade quilts & blankets are created through the loving care of “Blanket Angel” volunteers and donated locally!  Thousands of blankets are donated each year and personalized with the child's name, a tradition for My Very Own Blanket since 1999.
Our Vision
My Very Own Blanket is committed to putting a blanket in the hands of every youth entering foster care each year.  Beyond providing comfort, we strive to strengthen communities by raising awareness and offering connections with essential support services. Through our mission, we aim to bring warmth, stability and opportunity to those who need it most.

Our valued shipping partner
We are so grateful for our partnership with UnitedHealth Care Community Plan for consistent and generous help with our shipping needs.  They help us get blankets into the hands of children in foster care, AND they help us get blanket kits to people outside Central Ohio who want to make our “no-sew” fleece blankets to deliver to children in care in their areas.  So helpful!  We are so grateful and SO THANKFUL!
​If you are looking for a new health care plan, please consider joining our generous sponsors!
