Merry Christmas and Thank You, Blanket Angels!
We have exceeded our 2022 goal:
Blankets for 30,000 Children in Foster Care!
We reached 30,000 earlier this month!

Thank you to Steve, his wife, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for their donation which helped us reach (and pass) our goal of 30,000 blankets.
And we're welcoming so many Blanket Angels bringing even more!

My Very Own Blanket brings love, comfort and hope to children in foster care. Here's how you can help!


  • Drop off your finished blankets in the 24-hour curbside bin outside our workshop.

Hockey players make blankets
Fifteen boys ages 9 – 10 from the AAA Ohio Blue Jacket hockey team recently gathered with their families to make 17 blankets for MVOB. Kate, one of the team Moms, told us, “The activity was a great reminder of how lucky we all are to have supportive teammates and loving families this holiday season." Thanks!

Blankets donated to Central Ohio groups
