BLANKIDS
We achieve our mission by involving American children in our international “Blankids” campaign.
We achieve our mission by involving American children in our international “Blankids” campaign. For Blankids, we work with local schools and other learning institutions. Under our guidance, students make no-sew fleece blankets for orphaned children in various countries of the world. These handmade, heartwarming, and body-warming blankets become orphans’ precious mementos. By sending these fleecy keepsakes, American children not only show support for their orphaned friends but also are able to provide genuine humanitarian help.
