Event Description: Join March of the Blanketeers every Tuesday afternoon for a bear-making mini-event on Discord, dedicated to creating handmade bears for children in hospitals. This is a wonderful opportunity to bring comfort and joy to those who need it most. We welcome crafters of all skill levels! During this event, we’ll craft bears that adhere to safety standards-always free from safety eyes, noses, beads, buttons, safety pins, straight pins, sharp objects, broken glass, unsanitary items, food, candy, or anything that could pose a choking hazard.

What You'll Need:

  • Crafting materials (yarn, fabric, stuffing, etc.)
  • Basic crafting tools

Community Service Hours: Participants can earn community service hours for each bear made and donated through this event. Please note that all items made on the server must be forfeited to March of the Blanketeers upon completion for donation to hospitals.

How to Join: Sign up to receive an invite to our Discord server. Join us between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM EDT every Tuesday in our dedicated crafting channel.

Additional Information: This event is entirely virtual. Please ensure you have a stable internet connection and a comfortable workspace. If you have any questions or need assistance with materials, feel free to reach out.

Help March of the Blanketeers make a difference-one bear at a time-by crafting safe and comforting bears for children in hospitals.
