"Throw Away Fabric" Becomes Blankets For Homeless

Last week we took a few hours away from our desks to pass out care packages to Charlotte homeless. Our warehouse had a growing collection of printed fabric graphics that were no longer needed for client campaigns and GM, Joshua Miller decided to put them to use. He thought if we stitched together the "throw away" fabric, we could recycle it into blankets for the homeless. Over the last week our seamstress has been hard at work putting the pieces together, and in addition, we gathered up deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrush, water, crackers, and socks. This morning our 50 care packets were complete and they went directly to the hands of those who needed them the most. We hope this inspires you to do something good, too. We are more powerful than we know.
