Community Service: My Very Own Blanket Assembly - Galena, Ohio

Delaware Buckeyes have chosen to support My Very Own Blanket (myveryownblanket.org).  MVOB provides a blanket to each child in the foster care system.  In recognition of Ohio State’s 150th anniversary, we will be assembling 150 blankets to donate to MVOB.   The blankets we make will remain in the Delaware County area.

Blanket assembly requires using a template to cut the fringe and tie two pieces of fabric together.  No previous experience required.  Anyone from age 10 and up are welcome to volunteer.  Each blanket takes up to 2 hours to assemble so we’ll need 15-18 volunteers for each volunteer session.  We have four assembly dates scheduled (click here to see more event dates) and you can sign-up for just one or multiple sessions.  We’ll provide the blanket kits and scissors – you supply the hands.

A huge Thank You to First Commonwealth Mortgage for providing sponsorship for this community service project!
