This is me and my granddaughter, McKenzie Jo, looking over the donated Receiving Blankets that we will be shipping to the Philippines.     We are doing a 'pre-mission' project to gather receiving blankets that will be taken into the local and general hospitals there.    The new-born babies there are sent home in newsprint or old pieces of Tattered tarps.    We are accepting any gently used or new receiving blankets of lightweight flannel (1 layer ... minimum of 30"x30" with hemmed edges).    I will mail off a package before I leave home (around Jan. 20th).     I am working with 2 stakes here in Brigham City, and hopefully one in Salt Lake , who I will give the money for the shipping costs - and they will have Stake Service Projects to make and collect these receiving blankets.       Hopefully, we will be able to gather a fairly good supply for us to be able to get into the hands of the Labor & Delivery areas in these hospitals.
