Blanket and Teddy Update

"Blanket and Teddy" update!

Did you know?

A record high one out of every 45 children - about 1.6 million - in the United States is homeless.

Homelessness affects the emotional health of children, who often lose their toys and belongings, as well as their feeling of safety and security. Providing a homeless child with a new blanket and teddy bear restores a bit of that lost warmth and hope for years to come. Bringing a little joy to their hearts goes a long way toward recuperation and improving their life condition.

Your $5 donation will provide 1 new blanket and teddy bear for a homeless child. Our goal is to deliver 500 blankets and teddy bears to homeless shelters by Christmas day. Many children there do not have parents or their parents cannot provide the type of Christmas that most children enjoy.

Please help make this holiday season brighter for a homeless child by donating on our websiteAndroid appiPhone appBlackberry app, or with Google's "One Today" app.

Thank you to everyone who donated to the Blanket and Teddy project!

Your donations provided nearly 400 blankets and teddy bears for homeless children, making their holidays that much brighter.

This same project will be running all year 2015, so let's double our impact next Christmas with blankets and teddy bears for another 800 homeless children!
