When my mother, Katie, moved to Brookdale Club Hill in Garland, TX and I retired, she asked me to see if I could set up something for the residents with my “blanket making”. I volunteer with Binky Patrol, a national non-profit organization that makes and distributes new blankets to children from newborn to 18 years of age who are in need. (I.e.: hospitals, foster care, or emergency situations).

Stinky Binkies Can Harm Children
REMINDER REGARDING STINKY BINKIES: We provide for children with delicate, serious health issues and they are our top concern. Because we cherish the precious lives of all our little patients, we strongly ask that you be mindful in your donations. Binkies that have intensely potent odors of smoke, pet, perfume and the like are not only harmful to the well-being of the children, they can worsen their sensitive condition by adding to their already fragile state. Please go unscented! It is our responsibility to provide the purest, cleanest comfort possible so that each child knows they are valued! We will not give tax receipts or community service credit hours for any Binky we deem unusable.
