How
to organize a blanket drive
You
can organize a blanket drive through your work, church, neighborhood,
scout troop or social organization. Establish
a time period for collection, perhaps tying
it in with a holiday or theme - be creative. Spread the word on
your event by posting and distributing flyers. Customize your
flyers to suit your drive. See our sample flyers for ideas. Establish
drop-off points, drop boxes, or have neighbors leave blankets
on their front porch for pick-up on a certain day. Upon completion
of your drive, call us to arrange for delivery. Please feel free
to contact us if you need additional help or information.
