For every blanket purchased, Sackcloth & Ashes gives a blanket to our local homeless shelter. The Founder of Sackcloth & Ashes, Bob Dalton, was inspired to help the homeless population when his mother found herself living on the streets in 2013. Because of his mother's journey, he was inspired to call his local homeless shelters to ask what they needed most - they all said blankets. That's when Sackcloth & Ashes was founded. They highlight grassroots organizations that are creating solutions for helping the homeless. The blankets that they donate, although a real and practical need, are third party objects that connect us to amazing people and organizations doing incredible work on a grassroots level - in which we can help support and promote.
THE BLANKETS: Sustainably made in Italy - our blankets are made from recycled materials and produced in a water free, dye free, and chemical free process; all with comfort and durability in mind.
