Blankets for Soldiers and Veterans Lens Tops My Good Deed Charity Challenge for 9/11

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

Blankets of Hope Image I am equally pleased to announce that also on Friday September 19, 2008 the  Blankets for Soldiers and Veterans lens was selected as the top lens in the My Good Deed for 9/11 Charity Challenge and announced on the Squidoo Activists Blog, We are Changing the World.

Blankets for Soldiers and Veterans lens benefits Soldiers’ Angels and their different Blanket Projects. There are three different types of blankets:

    Blanket of Hope – for those who have been wounded.
    Blanket of Belief – for those who are currently serving.
    Blanket of Gratitude – for our veterans who have already served.

If you can sew, knit, crochet consider getting involved and making one of these special gifts for those who serve, or those who have served.

Solders’ Angels even offer an option of a no sew kit, for those who don’t feel very creative or donating directly to Soldiers’ Angels.

Think about the soldiers who may be facing a Holiday season without loved ones and do what you can to participate in the Blankets for Soldiers programs. You can also donate directly to Soldiers’ Angels on the lens. If you know any crafters, pass on the information to them.
