Action Tips: Create a Blanket for a Soldier (No Sewing Skills Necessary)
The Blankets of Hope team creates unique, handmade blankets to send hope, support and gratitude to America's wounded and veterans. Used on hospital beds, wheelchairs, and transport litters on medevac flights, Blankets of Hope bring the message that each servicemember is loved and not forgotten.
Why does it matter?
Wounded soldiers are quickly evacuated from the battlefield, leaving behind their clothing, personal equipment, and their brothers in arms. During this time of pain and upheaval, the Blanket of Hope provides warmth and comfort for the wounded soldier. Most importantly, it shows the soldier that someone cares about him and is thinking and praying for him at that very moment. This is very powerful for a wounded hero... the knowledge that someone cares.
There are several ways you can help:
- Can you sew? Join the Sewing Team.
- Complete a no-sew Blanket of Hope. This is a great project for kids, or people who don't sew!
- Sew, knit or crochet a blanket, using your own design.

this is really cool i love crocheting and gives me a project to do when im bored
i love this idea! I'm so going to do this. And it's great that you can still do it without knowing how to sew!
Our church got together and created the blankets, pajama bottoms and cards to our wounded warriors unit here at Ft. Hood. I would like to continue this with my school organization since most of my students have a military parent.
once I am done with my blanket what or where do I send it?
