Blanket of Hope Drive

Help Laugh at Cancer Organization Spread Seeds of Hope

Imogen Rayne AAB BSCOM
Hi, I am the Founder/President of the Laugh at Cancer Organization Inc., which is a non-profit that is based here in Jacksonville, Florida. I am passing out small gifts and fleece throw blankets to local cancer centers. This way, LACO can offer hope to these patients on their journey throughout cancer's touch. We are striving to collect 500 hundred blankets or more, but we need your help to reach our goals and allow us to make a difference.

The Project

LACO is collecting blankets of any colors for men and women, who are currently undergoing chemotherapy every month. These inexpensive blankets can be found at Wal-Mart or Target, plus dollar stores carry some neat ones for less. LACO is hoping these blankets will let patients know that there are people out here, who care about what they are facing. Additionally, our members pray that they will stay warm, during their chemotherapy sessions.

How to Help

On the 28th of each month, we will give out these blankets and other small gifts to patients in local clinics. If you are interested in helping LACO, please contact me personally and I will give you my mailing address. However, if you are interested in making a Gift of Love donation to this project, please contact me for my PayPal information. Any amount of blankets would help us give hope to these courageous patients, who need support and encouragement.

Joining the Project

Furthermore, we hope to offer this program online, but we will need a lot of blankets, gifts, and donations. This way, we have enough to send to the online families, who are in need of one on one encouragement and support. LACO is looking forward to finding volunteers, who want to collect blankets for our Drive in Jan. 2009. Let's make difference now, by touching families with our love and support during their time of need.

More Information

Thank you for your interest and for help in restoring hope in the lives of families facing cancer's devastating touch. For more information, please visit LACO's website and check out the many projects we have created to help families touched by any kind of cancer. So, take a moment, to consider helping us bless children and adults with a simple gift. In addition, anyone, who donates will receive a free gift for LACO for their donation and support.

LACO motto is: "Come Lean on the Wings of Hope..."
