The Blanket America Patchwork Heritage Collection is one which will add beauty and comfort to your home while giving you the knowledge that you have helped others with your purchase. Our nation holds a vastly varied amalgam of citizens from all languages, countries and creeds. We are a patchwork nation. Only through the concept of our “patchwork heritage” uniting as one do we become powerful, our different shapes and sizes sewn together for one common purpose. This culmination of patches uniting to help the needy is what the Patchwork Heritage Collection is celebrating.
This year more than 35 million people in our country are living in poverty, unable to afford the basic necessities that help us survive. Millions will go cold this winter without the help of others who are more fortunate. Our President has called us to action in order to be part of the solution. With determination and pride, we can each do our small part to make a big difference in the lives of those in need. In the words of our forefathers, “united we stand, divided we fall.” With this in mind, Blanket America has joined forces Gifts in Kind to make a difference. It is up to us to do our part.
Charitable giving has many benefits. With your purchase, you get the benefit of knowing you are helping to keep a family in need warm. For your efforts you are also rewarded with a lasting heirloom quilt and two free gifts.
With your purchase of the Patchwork Heritage Quilt, one blanket will be donated to an individual or family in desperate need of help. You can help Blanket America reach its goal of 1,000,000 blankets donated to the needy by simply making your purchase from the Patchwork Heritage Collection. The collection includes stylish and meaningful pieces to complement your home’s décor while giving you a sense of pride.
The face of the Patchwork Heritage Quilt is comprised of 13 unique fabrics representing the 13 original colonies. On the reverse side is the entire Presidential Inaugural speech, which highlights the words “Patchwork Heritage.” The shams, sold separately, mirror the front of the quilt and have a textured print back. The flag decorative pillow, also sold separately, also features printed artwork on front and back and features printed artwork highlighting the words, “Patchwork Heritage is a strength, not a weakness.”
The Patchwork Heritage Collection also comes with a 14 page booklet highlighting the history of the quilt and the president’s call to action as well as your Patchwork Heritage Awareness car magnate.
