Know a Brave Soul?

Nominate the Brave Soul in your life for a special handmade fleece blanket!

​

 

 Hello, Brave Souls!  We are so excited you're here!  Before you move on to our nomination form, there are just a few things we'd like you to know.

​

First and foremost, we want you to know that even though we wish we could send blankets to everyone living with a life-altering illness, we are limited.  So by you taking a few extra minutes to thoroughly read through this intro and disclaimers, then fill out the nomination form, it really helps us streamline our donation program!  We ask that you please take a moment to share a little bit about the nominee’s journey with life-altering illnesses. 

 

Although we do not have the ability to send blankets to every individual who applies or is nominated, we absolutely do read through each and every form.  And wow! You all have some incredible stories to tell, each so unique.  Wherever your journey takes you, remember that you are one amazing Brave Soul and we are so honored that you took time to share a glimpse of your story with us!

 

Prior to filling out the form below, please make sure the person you are nominating meets ALL (3) of our required criteria to be eligible for our Brave Soul Blanket donation program.

1. Have a medically diagnosed life-altering illness (e.g., CF, EDS, epilepsy, MS, MG, cancers, CP, autoimmune disease, etc.), a woman with high-risk pregnancy with complications or on bedrest, or a parent with preemie in the NICU.

2. Between the ages of 18-45 years old.

3. Live in the Continental United States or Canada.

 

Before Nominating:

​

• Have ALL of the necessary detailed information about the nominated individual ready to go; once you hit "submit" you cannot go back to edit later.  Blankets cannot be sent without an address and full (first and last) name – without this information the application immediately be denied.

• Be sure the nominated individual meets ALL THREE of the qualifying criteria listed.  We kindly ask you to not exaggerate the story for a simple blanket.  We have hundreds of very sick individuals on our wait-list. 

• Fill out the form as instructed:

  • We ask for YOUR full name and email address to send confirmation if the nomination has been accepted. ​ Please note in the form if you would like to remain anonymous.

  • Blankets will ONLY be sent directly to the nominated individuals.  We do not make exceptions.

• If available, please include the nominee’s social media information as we are very active on Instagram and Facebook!  Check us out on Pinterest too!

  • IMPORTANT Disclaimer:  Brave Soul Inc. reserves the right to share nominees limited information for social media and marketing purposes.  These may include but are not limited to photos, name, age, and broad diagnosis.  No contact information will ever be shared without written permission.  Brave Soul Inc. will always do our best to protect your privacy!  We do not share personal information with any third-party companies or organizations.  If there are any concerns, please contact us at bravesoulblankets@gmail.com.

• We also ask that you share how you learned about Brave Soul Blankets! In 2017 we started with just $50 in my pocket and have now sent nearly 400 blankets through our donation program.  What an amazing community we have supporting us here at Brave Soul Blankets!

​

Disclaimer:  We receive many nominations.  Brave Soul Inc. reserves the right to not provide an explanation for denied nominations in our nonprofit blanket program.  We have a limited amount of blankets sent out each month and try to send in an equal manner as much as possible.

When will they get the blanket?  Nominees with an immediate financial sponsor/"Adopt a Brave Soul" will be placed on our priority list.  Other accepted nominees are placed in order of receipt onto our wait-list.
