Service Projects
Blanket Bundling
Are you looking for a fun service oriented activity for your school, youth group, or company? We would love to come alongside your group to create unique blanket bundles to benefit local foster care or domestic violence shelter organizations.
Step one:
We divide the larger group up into teams of 4-6. Each team selects the fabric (and stuffed animal) to create a tie blanket and bundle with.
Step two:
Once your team's blanket is completed, we show your group how to burrito your stuffed animal and a small fidget toy up. The bundle will get transported a few times before it's final destination so we need to make sure it's bundled up tight!
The End Result
Amazingly unique, soft cuddly bundles ready to arrive to a Foster Child or child arriving into a Domestic Violence Shelter that bring an immense amount of comfort during a very scary transition. It also gives them something just for them to keep.

The blanket bundles donated by the Children's Toy Fund are just awesome. They provide such comfort to vulnerable children going through a difficult time. The kids eyes just light up when they get to pick out their favorite stuffed animal and blanket!

Working with the Children's Toy Fund for my senior service project was a great experience! Ashley and the rest of the staff were so kind and helpful, and they were always willing to work with me to carry out my project. Ashley came alongside of me each step of the way and helped me feel good about the process. While mentoring me, she let me take the lead in planning my project, which allowed me to learn valuable leadership and organizational skills. I was able to do something that helps kids while learning along the way - it was awesome!
