1. Give a blanket.
- Purchase a fleece blanket kit for $12 (pick up) or $15 (to ship) to get all you need to make a blanket and to support our work.
- Sponsor a blanket. Donate $20 to sponsor a blanket that will be made by volunteers in senior communities and our friends living with developmental disabilities.
- Donate a quilt or knitted/crocheted blanket. Work alone or with your quilt guild or knitting group. Get blanket details here
- Host a blanket event for friends, co-workers, family. It's simple; learn how.
2. Give your time.
URGENT NEED! Volunteers who can sew are needed from late November thru mid-January to sew labels on fleece for large kit orders! Work in our workshop or at home. Email [email protected] to volunteer.
Become a workshop volunteer – just once, once a week, once a month, or whenever you’re available. Some volunteer tasks: cut selvedges from lengths of fleece, cut fringe, fold blankets, package fleece kits, check-in donated blankets, sew on labels (you can do this at home!), print labels, cut labels, cut 1.5-yard lengths of fleece -- and more!
