This year, our Bink-A-Thon will be, Sat. 10/25/2009
The list will begin to build in July/August. These chapters will be hosting events to make as many blankets as possible that day to deliver to their local area shelters and hospitals.
The Bink-a-Thon is our annual blanket drive and fundraiser event. The participating chapters use this event to encourage more volunteers, make a ton of binkies in one day, have fun and get donations to help keep their chapters running in the coming months.
Any donations will be used for supplies for the coming months to make more binkies to comfort the children in local area shelters and hospitals.
If you can’t attend a local Bink-A-Thon, but would like to donate to a participating chapter, please use this link to make a tax-deductible donation.
Please check this article regularly or our events calendar linked above to stay up on the latest chapters to be added to this event!
