Blankets 4 Kids

It takes a special person to give…

Children have their own basic needs, and in low-income families, many of these needs go unmet. Many children have little support to fall back on when brought into this world. Some are more fortunate than others, but for those families who struggle to keep the basic necessities supplied, Blanket4Kids.net provides a service that “stands in the gap” for struggling families.

Blankets For Kids is a Non-Profit 501(c) 3 Organization and AZ Tax Credit Certified.

All blankets are rolled and stuffed with crocheted hats, scarves, and stuffed animals!

Making a Difference in Our Communities

Blankets4Kids supplies blankets, hats, scarves, and stuffed animals to struggling families.

These blankets provide warmth and comfort, and they also look great! Our community donations are of high quality. Some of the donated blankets, scarves, hats, and yarn are made up of microfiber, polyester, cotton, and velvet nylon. This makes the blankets both durable and washable. Due to the flexibility of the blankets, they can be used for sleeping, cuddling, or even traveling. They are provided in various colors.

Giving back to other people is one of the most rewarding and easiest ways people can contribute to society.

Our numbers are growing, and we are proud of our partners and the folks that contribute to help make Blankets4Kids a great success!

What is a virtuous heart? It’s giving without any thought of restitution.
Each act of giving comes from that core of goodness.

If we touch that core of goodness, we feel moved. This is natural giving.
We need your help today to make the lives of children better. Give freely, and relish how your core of goodness is touched.

The Mission of Blankets 4 Kids: Every Child Deserves Comfort, Warmth, and Security

There are low-income families who are struggling for the bare essentials: food, clothing, and shelter. The circumstances causing this family dilemma may be varied, i.e., loss of job, foreclosure, illness, or addiction, but the results remain fairly constant: there are children who desperately need our assistance. There are so many families suffering in Yavapai County! Unemployment in some places, like Black Canyon City and Ashfork, is so high that too often families are slipping into homelessness.

This organization donates thousands of these blankets, wrapped up in a roll with a scarf and hat inside and a teddy bear’s head sticking merrily out the top. What joy this brings to youngsters! No child in America should be cold. All children need a stuffed animal to snuggle and comfort them! We are on a mission to make sure that every child who has a need for warmth and comfort will receive it.

DROP OFF COMFORT ITEMS

Blankets 4 Kids works closely with various children’s agencies, distributing these “comfort items” to them so that they may provide them to the children in need. We also hold blanket-thons at Christmastime, where families who pick up their food basket from the Yavapai Food Bank can also receive these blankets and bears directly.

We Operate Solely From Donations By You

Please drop off: Blankets, Hats, Scarves, Stuffed Animals & Yarn.

The Blankets4Kids Warehouse

The blankets are rolled, and each one is stuffed with a hat, scarf, and stuffed animal. They are placed on the racks depending on their size and gender. The adult blankets and comforters are sorted by their sizes, i.e., twin, queen, and king. Every item that leaves the warehouse is either a new item or one that has been cleaned, if used!

The organization has funding needs in order to carry out its mission. The major areas that are identified are in the following categories:

Acquisition of items
Assembly and packaging of items
Distribution of items to agencies and direct to children/families
