StepStone Collects Blankets for Its Annual ‘Wrapped In Love’ Blanket Drive Benefiting Foster Youth

Community and Rehab Care - Community Living / February 2, 2026

As temperatures drop, StepStone Family & Youth Services is once again working to ensure children in foster care experience warmth, comfort, and belonging through its annual Wrapped in Love blanket drive.

StepStone will be accepting donations of new and gently used blankets from February 2 through February 13, 2026, at locations across Kentucky, Indiana, Virginia, West Virginia, Arizona, Ohio, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Georgia.

Each year, Wrapped in Love brings together community members, partners, and volunteers to donate blankets, giving foster youth a tangible reminder that they are cared for and supported.

Since 2020, Wrapped in Love has been central to StepStone’s commitment to meeting the emotional and practical needs of children and families, especially during vulnerable times.

StepStone Family & Youth Services connects children in need with foster families who can provide comforting, nurturing homes. The organization offers foster care services, counseling, respite care, and training for foster parents. StepStone is always looking for new foster families to support children who need safe, caring living environments.
