Lifting Hands International (www.lhi.org) sends large shipping containers of aid to refugees around the world every month! We are in need of any kind of blankets to send to refugees in many countries (Ukraine, Jordan, Bangladesh, and many more!). You can make or purchase any kind of blankets, any size. But larger sizes for adults are preferred. Most groups prefer to make blankets by purchasing 1.5 yards of fleece and then cutting the edges into strips and tying them into a knot. This is an ongoing need, so you can donate blankets any time. There is no deadline. You can ship blankets to us at: Lifting Hands International 920 E State Rd, Suite H American Fork, UT 84003 Or you could ship donations through an organization called Give Back Box.
