We make blankets and give them to children and teens who need a reminder that they matter, are not invisible, worthy of love, and that someone cares. Ill, abused, homeless, experiencing trauma.

Blankets can be anywhere from 36"x36" (preemies and babies) up to a twin-sized blanket, 45"x60" (children and teens - those are the ones we ALWAYS NEED - the BIG ONES for BIG KIDS). Blankets can be sewn, crocheted, knitted, or quilted!

Blankets, or "Binkies" as they're called, are delivered to our Binky Patrol chapters across the U.S. The Area Coordinators then organize a group of people to sew labels onto each blanket. Once the labels are on, the blankets are delivered by yet more volunteers to local hospitals, crisis centers, police and fire departments, and other local agencies. The blankets are then given to children and teens in need of comfort.

If you want to help us more, you can also have us send you labels to add and perhaps - if there is no chapter near you, you can deliver them to a local group that really needs them. We work with social services in most states and the groups they are tied to. We are also MrBallen Foundation partners and tied to all of the organizations they serve.

This is a great way for students to earn Community Service hours!

Gather a group of your friends or family members, take a quick trip to your local fabric store, pick out some fleece, bring it home, make some blankets and deliver or ship them to a Binky Patrol chapter near you! If you sew you can make quilts. if you knit or crochet you can make afghans. Please be sure to use machine washable and dryable materials in all blankets. We'll be glad to help you find a chapter near you or help coordinate delivery. Contact us today - kathyt949@earthlink.net
