Happy Blankie

   There are a few companies out there who use the model of buy one give one. The company I want to share with you today is called Happy Blankie. This organization is really unique because it was inspired by a seven year old boy's idea. Please read the info below and watch the video to learn more. I think this is a great way to give a gift to your child or a child you know and then get your kids involved in giving to a child in need across the world or close to home!

Happy Blankie's Mission:

 

David Holdridge, founder of Happy Blankie, had a remarkable idea. His mother Emily encouraged him to bring his idea to life – and then added a life lesson that we can ALL teach our children - share. Her idea was to share the happiness of Happy Blankie with children in need of a smile. Thus, ONE to Love, ONE to Share, became the core philosophy of Happy Blankie. The concept is based on Emily’s message to David (and her other 3 children) – love one another, share with others and make a difference in the world.

 

Happy Blankie is donating blankies to children in need all over the world. YOU will be able to make a difference by choosing where you would like to give a blankie. When you receive your blankie you will be able to follow the instructions on the "giving is cool" tag in order to donate your second blanket.
We will send you an email that will keep you informed of our future giving dates and destinations. Both you and Happy Blankie are changing the world, two blankies at a time - and that is what we call REMARKABLE.
