Author: New Blanket America Program offers Heritage Quilts
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New Blanket America Program offers Heritage Quilts
The patchwork quilt has long been an American tradition, symbolizing unity and strength. There is a new program beginning with Michelle Obama’s support to bring 1,000,000 blankets to the needy this year.
The wonderful thing about this program is that it brings people together to make the goal possible. By offering lovely patchwork quilts backed with the January 20th 2009 inaugural address, the program will use your purchase to provide a blanket to those in need.
The Blanket America Patchwork Heritage Quilt features 13 fabrics in the traditional patchwork design. Each fabric piece represents a piece of our unique American strength, our diversity. Sewn together by the spirit of good will, the pieces come together to create unity. This design was inspired by President Obama’s message of the value of our “patchwork heritage.”
With the purchase of a Blanket America quilt a donation of another blanket will be made through a partnership with Gifts In Kind International. We see many opportunities to benefit others through our purchases this year, and this is one of the best. It is a one for one donation, meaning that your participation makes a real, tangible difference for another family this year.
Stories, ideas, and progress of the program will be discussed at www.blanketamerica.com. This website will bring together information and inspiring stories from the members of this movement. Sharing these experiences will be another benefit of getting involved.
The quilts are available in a Throw or Lap Quilt size for $59.99, Full/Queen size for $79.99, and King size for $99.99. These prices are affordable and an excellent value for patchwork quilts. There is a size to fit your ability to participate, and all include the blanket donation to the less fortunate. Optional pillows and pillow shams will complete the ensemble.
This project is expected to increase in visibility and support as celebrities and public figures become involved. There are over 35 million Americans in poverty this year with a large portion of these being children. With widespread support Blanket America can meet the goal of providing 1,000,000 blanket this year to these families.
This is an excellent opportunity and an exciting way to support President Obama’s message of hope and compassion. Be sure to join in, be part of our patchwork heritage, and proudly display this keepsake quilt for its own beauty and for the generosity it represents.
