CCAI and CCAA
Join Hands to Wrap Orphans in Love

Karen Bradley, mother of two Chinese daughters, has in the past two years made more than 1,400 beautiful blankets for Chinese children in orphanages. Her loving efforts have inspired CCAI and the China Center of Adoption Affairs to join hands once again to initiate a “Blankets for Babies” project. The project’s 2007 goal was to produce a total of 1,000 blankets through adoptive families’ participation before June 1, 2007, Children’s Day in China. Through the combined efforts of Karen and CCAI, the project nearly doubled their goal and shipped 1,757 blankets for June! The CCAA helped with the individual delivery of the blankets by selecting orphanages in need and assisting with distribution. With further mailings in 2007, the total blankets shipped with Karen’s Blankets for Babies Project has exceeded 4,300 - this means 4,300 warmer babies and children!

Since this is an on-going project to help the waiting children of China’s orphanages, we invite all of you to be a part of this beautiful project by making your own blankets or a donation to help with shipping.
