BLANKETS 4 KIDS, INC.

MISSION:

Blankets 4 Kids is devoted to providing comfort, warmth, and security to children who are in families that may not be able to provide these essential components themselves. We provide a needy child with a blanket, hat, scarf and a stuffed animal.

AGENCY SELF-DESCRIPTION:

This organization donates thousands of these blankets, wrapped up in a roll with a scarf and hat inside, teddy bear's head sticking merrily out the top. What joy this brings to these youngsters! No child in America should have to be cold. All children need a stuffed animal to snuggle and comfort them! We are on a mission to make sure every child that has a need to warmth and comfort will receive it. Blankets 4 Kids works closely with 16 various children's agencies, distributing these "comfort items" to them so that we may provide them to children in need. We also hold "Blanket-Thons" in the fall and winter months around the community and at Christmas time B4KS is always down at "Yavapai County Food Bank" donating comfort items to both children and family members who come to pick-up their food baskets.
