Help The Grace Factory by sponsoring material and overlocking receiving blankets for premature babies.
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
In honour of World Prematurity Day on 17 November, we are preparing 400 maternity packs to support vulnerable mothers and their premature babies. As part of these packs, we are including soft, warm baby receiving blankets, and we need your help to make them! What’s Needed: We are asking supporters to purchase 1 meter (or more) of standard printed polar fleece from their local haberdashery store. Each 1 meter of fleece can be cut in half to make 2 baby blankets. After cutting, the edges should be overlocked to finish the blankets neatly. Your contribution can be as simple as: ✅ Buying and donating fleece fabric ✅ Getting someone or a team to cut and overlock the fabric ✅ When done, drop off at one of our drop off points Together, we can show care and warmth to vulnerable mothers and their babies at a critical time in their lives.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
