Fleece & Thank You, a Michigan-based non-profit organization, is dedicated to providing connection, comfort, and hope through its programs, services and materials to children facing illness and their families supporting them. Our goal is to provide every child facing hospital treatments with a colorful, comfortable fleece blanket and a video message of support from its maker. Our signature program is our blanket-making event. We work with thousands of blanket makers every year to help us achieve our goal of making 30,000 fleece blankets, one blanket for every child in MI that goes into the hospital for inpatient treatments. Every blanket we provide also has a personal video message attached to it from the blanket maker to the recipient in the hospital, who can then send a “thank-you” message back to the maker.
