Blankets
Bedding in Good Condition
Homeless and battered women's shelters are in constant need of
blankets, towels, and linen that are in decent, usable condition. Check
your local phonebook or click here to find a dropoff near you.
Here are a few places that are specifically seeking blankets:
New Mexico, Albuquerque: Albuquerque Rescue Mission. Needs blankets and other warm weather apparel for their Winter Emergency Overflow Shelter.
Michigan: Red Cross locations throughout southeastern Michigan take new blankets throughout the winter season.
Bedding in Poor Condition
If your bedding materials are stained, ratty, or otherwise not up to
human standards, an animal shelter might be a better choice. Since my
castoffs are too crummy to pass on to fellow humans, that's what I do.
If you're in California, you can search here for a local shelter.
Here is a national list of ASPCA shelters.
