These will be used by people in need in many developing countries. We had the privilege to volunteer at the World Medical Relief, where we all sorted through medical equipment which will be sent to places in need of high quality medical equipment. The World Medical Relief is also a state of the art pacemaker facility, and they gave us an amazing tour of their facility, where they collect, sterilize, and repair pacemakers before they are then given to others who need them.

These will be distributed to metro Detroit Children's hospitals. During this fantastic project, youth took home blanket bags and provided a quality check at home using the guidelines given by Fleece & Thank You. They performed tasks such cutting and retying stands as necessary, noting if any tags or codes were missing, and placing blankets in separate bags based on their quality. They made sure the blankets were in great quality! These blankets were dropped back off at Fleece & Thank you to be later distributed to different childrenโs hospitals.

Fleece and Thank you gave us the opportunity to help them remotely by giving youth blankets to take home and quality check them to Fleece and Thank youโs standards. Throughout this project, our VT Seva Detroit youth volunteers engaged in various quality inspection tasks such as retying the strands if loose or unevenly spaced, cutting to make sure all the strands were the same length, and by making sure the blanket didnโt have any holes or rips and if so patching them to the volunteers best ability.

As part of our monthly volunteering initiative at the Houston Council of the Blind, VT Seva Houston volunteers had the privilege of contributing in meaningful ways. From distributing snacks and keeping an organized headcount to assisting with various needs throughout the event, every small act added up to a truly enriching experience. Being part of a community that values support and inclusivity was deeply inspiring. Witnessing the joy and connection these gatherings bring to attendees reminded us how even the simplest gestures can leave a lasting impact. This experience reaffirmed the power of service and the value of showing up with compassion.
