Give the Gift of Warmth
Annually, the Make It Better Foundation facilitates a program called Warming Hearts & Hands, which makes it easy for you to give the gift of warmth to those who need it.
We assess needs and find the most cost-effective way to acquire new winter wear and blankets. We welcome donations large and small — from corporate partners to knitting circles.
Here’s how you can help:
- Donate toward the purchase of winter wear and blankets
- Request to be a coat/blanket distribution partner
One hundred percent of your monetary gifts goes towards the purchase and distribution of these essential supplies. All donated items are delivered to appropriate nonprofit recipients.
