Our Promise
BlanketUSA is dedicated 24/7 to ensure that all of our organization’s efforts go to help fill the needs of America’s nonprofit homeless shelters and outreach organizations to warm our country’s most vulnerable populations.
How We Do It
BlanketUSA works with homeless shelters and outreach organizations across the country by providing them with new blankets. BlanketUSA receives requests from organizations and ships blankets in attempts to fulfill their requests. Our inventory of blankets varies and is based on the requests received, time of year and our ability to fulfill the orders based on donations. In some cases, BlanketUSA is also able to fulfill disaster relief requests and blankets for refugee needs.
The blankets are all new, purchased in large quantities to receive the best discounts and are shipped directly from the BlanketUSA offices in Louisville, Kentucky.
Each blanket is sent with a tag that simply says ... YOU ARE LOVED!
We are excited to now offer gloves, hats and socks, along with blankets!
