First year Charles City Lincoln Elementary School teacher Beth Jurrens, is making fleece blankets with her students. This idea came after Jurrens scrolled through Facebook and was inspired by what needs these blankets could serve in the community.

Jurrens approached JOANN Fabric and Craft Stores in Mason City for the materials needed to embark on this roject. The employees were so moved by the idea, many donated their own personal fabric in a hosh-posh collection.
