The Wishing blanket is a Non-Profit charity that I started in 2011. We make blankets and give them to children who are orphans or in the foster care system. For questions about donating or to contact us please email us at thewishingblanket@gmail.com.

We Have a Deadline!
My call was finally returned today by a local foster care system that I contacted about donating. The nice woman told me they have a christmas party in December that adult's and children come to. So by December 25th I must make 25 youth blankets and 25 teen blankets. Today I will be contacting some fabric companies requesting donations. I also have found a fundraising company I can purchase coupon cards and sell them to raise funds. I have a free card coming in the mail to see if it's worth selling. I would never sell something that is a scam because I know I would hate it. Another way I'm going to raise money is place donation cups at the checkouts of local stores and cafes but I have to talk to the owners. Luckily I live in a friendly neighborhood and we are friends with many of the owners. So my journey continues into the jungle that is fundraising.
