Partnering with Blankets for Kids, James Logan’s Humanitarian Assistance Club is holding a winter blanket drive for homeless children primarily living in the Bay Area. Club advisor, Paula Atlansky, agreed to allow students to drop off blankets during lunch, before or after school to her classroom located in 506.

Because there has been several recent outbreaks of the spreading of harmful diseases, all donated blankets must be brand new. The homeless shelter offered by Blankets for Kids strongly says that in order to prevent transmitting any sort of sickness, they cannot risk carrying used blankets. Thus, please be sure any blankets being donated are brand new.

The homeless children of the Bay Area appreciates your donation.
