Each year more than 6 million children in America require hospital stays. As wonderful and healing as hospital’s are, sometimes that therapeutic experience can be a little scary for young ones.
To make the stay a little less daunting, caring company, Downy partnered with the nonprofit organization, Quilts for Kids to provide handmade-with-love blankets to the youngest of patients requiring a hospital stay. Since 2009 Downy’s Touch of Comfort program has delivered more than 20,000 warm and cuddly blankets to help soothe hospitalized children.
If you’re a D-I-Y giver, with a flair for quilting, head over to downy.com. Although the company has filled its quota of hand-made quilts, it makes it super-easy for sewers (even beginners) to get involved in the do-good, give-back efforts with Quilts for Kids, by offering a free downloadable Touch of Comfort heart quilt pattern – the perfect way to cover someone with love!
