关于我们
Fleece & Thank You, a Michigan-based non-profit organization, is dedicated to providing connection, comfort, and hope programs, services and materials to children facing illness and their families supporting them. Our signature program is our blanket-making event. We host over 400 blanket-making events every year to help us achieve our goal of making 30,000 fleece blankets, one blanket for every child in MI that goes into the hospital for inpatient treatments. Fleece & Thank You was inspired by our friend Sophie, 4 years old and battling neuroblastoma. Sophie essentially has cancer up and down her entire spinal column. At a time in her life when she should be playing with dolls and meeting new friends, Sophie is taking trips to the hospital to battle one of the toughest forms of childhood cancer. Get a group together to do a blanket-making event! Every $28 donated pays forward a comforting experience for a warrior in the hospital by buying your group fleece to make a 2-yard blanket and make a video message. Email us for more info on an event for your group! Our goal is a simple one: we work to have every child in every hospital bed receiving much-needed hope in the form of a colorful, fleece blanket at the start of treatment. We hope you are able to help us provide a light for these children during a dark time.

Last week we came together to support the mission of improving health and wellbeing, not only with our customers but also in our communities. We had the privilege of partnering with Fleece & Thank You a nonprofit dedicated to providing comfort to children facing illness. It was a meaningful experience, and I’m proud of how we contributed to this impactful cause. ?????? #LifeAtThermoFisher #CommunityImpact #FleeceAndThankYou #GivingBack

EP Cares - Making Blankets for Fleece & Thank You We recently partnered with?Fleece & Thank You, an organization dedicated to providing comfort, connection, and hope to children facing illness and the families supporting them. At EP, we were committed to making 65 blankets, each with fun patterns, vibrant colors, and, most importantly, warmth. Once completed, the blankets were sent to a sanitizing facility for proper cleaning before being delivered to children at?Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone. We hope these blankets bring smiles to the faces of the children who receive them, offering a bit of comfort during a difficult time. EP sends its warmest wishes to each child and their family.
