My Blanket Drive
When I was a little boy I had to spend Christmas in the hospital as a child. Even though I was sick the staff worked to make the time enjoyable. I distinctly remember being given a blanket during my Christmas stay in the hospital which I dearly loved. When I was ten years old I thought about how that blanket helped me and wanted to provide that same joy to other children. So for the past 15 years I have donated enough blankets every year to Primary Children's Hospital so that every child there over Christmas can get there own blanket.
