For years, mother and daughter, Marcia and Helaine Lobman, with the help of friends and neighbors have crocheted, knitted and quilted children’s and lap blankets for needy children. Marcia estimates that she and her friends and neighbors have donated in excess of 2000 blankets to children’s hospitals and shelters. Marcia’s efforts were supported principally by her husband, Bob, and by donations of yarn and materials from individuals and yarn manufacturers. Helaine has been somewhat less productive and donated blankets to needy children through various non-profits and supported those non-profits with monetary donations.

 We decided to form this not-for-profit for several reasons: The impact of our activities as individuals is limited. Bob was very proud of Marcia’s activities, but unfortunately, after being diagnosed with esophageal cancer, he passed away on September 10, 2007. Starting this not-for-profit gives us the opportunity to honor Bob through a living memorial celebrating his life and to multiply the benefits of these activities by involving you. To achieve that goal, our efforts will be focused on children and adults who are ill and needy and providing comfort and love in handmade blankies and other items.

We are a 501(c)(3) tax exempt charity with locations in Boynton Beach, FL, Princeton, NJ and Orange County, California.  Please join us! 

We hope we can count on your support and encouragement.
