134 new "No-Sew" blankets were donated to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Scottish-Rite! Sept. 25, 2023
28 blankets were made by youth and donated to female first responders attending a mental health retreat. We hope they always wrap themselves in Love & snuggle into the ever so important - rest and self-care. So grateful for their services.

To date we have donated 134 handmade no-sew blankets. We can always use donations of new fleece to engage more volunteers. If you have a group interested in creating blankets, please reach out for more info. For more information or other ways to support this program please email us below. Thank you for your interest
We are always looking to create more comfort via no-sew blankets!! Want to help? 😊
Comfort Covers
A program grown to create a service opportunity for families, groups, businesses, and individuals. This program allows volunteers to create fleece comfort blankets which are then donated to special souls in need of a touch of comfort.
Gather together soft fleece (anti-pill) material and spend time creating a soft, comforting blanket to donate. Our blankets range in different sizes. A common size for youth blankets is 1.5 yards by 1.5 yards of fabric. For an adult size blanket please use 2 yards x 2 yards. You will also need a ruler and scissors. That's it!
This is a great family project to work on together. For us, some blankets took us around 40 minute's to complete. Any hours spent on this at home can be signed off for service hours by KIDS CARE when the blankets are given to us.
We typically have different programs running throughout the year and the blankets can benefit these programs or they may be delivered on a special as need basis as we monitor our communities' needs.
In collaboration with Building Strong Horizons, we have donated 134 no-sew blankets to children battling cancer at CHOA Scottish-Rite in Atlanta. We look forward to giving more comfort to other vulnerable populations. Perhaps even gifting some blankets to our local homeless community members. You can watch a short video on our YouTube channel to see us at work: https://youtube.com/shorts/TTW19pch6Yw?feature=share
Have a question or want to get in touch? We'd love to hear from you. Contact us today and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. We can also arrange for a pick up or meet for a delivery of your generous donations.
This is a really great service to do with children of all ages.
