Our mission	Provide comfort and hope to children battling illness by giving donors the opportunity to create a blanket and video message of support.

Opportunities	Warehouse or Events Volunteering Our warehouse is where all of our behind the scenes work happens! The warehouse is located in Farmington Hills, MI (on the border of Novi and Farmington Hills). Every Monday and Wednesday from 9:30am-4pm, we prep our blanket kits, a process involving cutting fleece, screen pressing patches onto the blankets, and folding them up!

About us	For many of our patients and their families, this is a room they do not want to be in and a diagnosis they do not understand. It’s not their bed, not their sheets, not their pillow, and not their “normal.” We can give these kids and their families one of the first reasons to smile during an uncertain time, one of the first reasons to have hope when they see something bright and colorful waiting for them on the bed. We hope you will join us by making your Fleece & Thank You blanket and video message today!
