Children’s Blankets of Love recently completed another meaningful blanket delivery to one of its valued Hospital Partner Betty H. Cameron Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Wilmington, NC. CBOL founders Barbara and Vic Marchioni, along with their grandsons Carmine and Gianni, personally delivered 100 new blankets to support hospitalized children and their families.
This special delivery reflects the heart of Children’s Blankets of Love’s mission—providing comfort, warmth, and encouragement to children facing medical challenges.
A Family Mission of Giving Back
Barbara and Vic were honored to share this experience with Carmine and Gianni, continuing the family tradition that helped inspire the creation of Children’s Blankets of Love. Including younger generations in these deliveries highlights the importance of community service and teaches the value of helping others during difficult times.
Each blanket delivered represents more than warmth—it represents compassion, reassurance, and a reminder that children receiving treatment are supported by a caring community.
Supporting a Valued Hospital Partner
During the visit, Michelle, a children’s services worker at Betty H. Cameron Women’s and Children’s Hospital, shared how the blankets are used to comfort sick children throughout their treatment and recovery. The hospital team expressed deep gratitude for the donation and emphasized how impactful these blankets are for patients and their families.
Hospital staff often use the blankets to provide emotional support during stressful or uncertain moments. For many children, receiving a blanket offers a sense of security and something personal they can hold onto during their hospital stay.
