PARK CITY, Utah, Jan. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- On January 20, 2009 the President, in his inaugural speech, called us to unite & act. His powerful words of "our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness" was a bipartisan call to action!

Blanket America is about more than blankets. It is about changing the way charity and business works. Most of all, it is about encouraging citizens to become more than consumers. We dream of a society in which people with the resources to feed themselves, clothe themselves, and shelter themselves from the cold take some responsibility, every time they make a purchase, for those who are in need. |
