Blankets and Books

Dear Supporter:

Thank you again for supporting Comfort Cases, and for choosing to help us purchase blankets and books. You signed up for updates, so we wanted to touch base and let you know that we have distributed 16,104 Comfort Cases so far in 2022!

We are knee-deep in fall activities -- from requests for school supplies as well as our Comfort Cases and Comfort XLs to getting ready for next week's Little-by-Little Campaign here on the GlobalGiving portal. And, what does this busy fall season mean for us? It means a greater demand for Comfort Cases and more fundraising for us! One of the more fun ways to help supply Comfort Cases is by hosting a Backyard BBQ Fundraiser.  Find out how: Backyard BBQ Fundraising Program | Comfort Cases

Blankets and books are hard to come by, but the most important are comforts for the body and mind. Children enter the foster care system with little more than the clothes on their backs and whatever they can quickly gather and put into a trash bag. Thanks to YOU, we have changed that scenario for more than 170,000 children and youth entering foster care by giving them Comfort Cases filled with essentials like soap and a toothbrush and by ensuring every one of our Comfort Cases includes a warm and cozy new blanket and a meaningful age-appropriate storybook that they can dive into right away. To see a full list of what goes into a Comfort Case, you can visit our website: What’s a Comfort Case | Comfort Cases

We hope you are feeling proud of what you have done, and continue to do for children entering foster care.  Every Comfort Case includes a loving note with messages like: "Stay strong", "We care about you, and "You are loved". 

Thank you from me and my team - we are so appreciative!  Stay tuned via our social media channels, tune in to our podcasts: Archives: Podcasts | Comfort Cases and please be sure to share your generous commitment to Comfort Cases with your friends and family this week!

Gratefully yours,

Rob Scheer, Founder
