TOOLS OF HOPE & BLANKETS

A rainbow of caring to children and families the world over!

Add your own colors to our rainbow of caring. The CWS TOOLS OF HOPE & BLANKET Program is a great way for your congregation or group to become a partner in the development work of Church World Service. By providing the right tools at the right time, CWS makes a world of difference in the lives of people in need. Blankets, tents, bedding, and other emergency supplies in the wake of natural disasters and human calamities are very real tools of hope. So are hoes and trowels, a well and pump for a village, education and training, fishing nets and fingerlings to stock a pond, and a small-enterprise loan – large or small, if it empowers people and brings a better tomorrow, it's a tool of hope! Not only that, but CWS is a GREAT partner with Week of Compassion and a concrete way to follow through with "Grace Upon Grace."

To get you started, we have free-for-the-asking a Resource Kit, including a video, alternative gift catalog, and all the materials and ideas you'll need for a compelling, informative TOOLS OF HOPE & BLANKET celebration with your congregation or group.

If you want to know more about how you can be a part of the Rainbow offering, please contact the Regional CWS Office in your area at 1-888-CWS-CROP (that's 1-888-297-2767) or order your free TOOLS OF HOPE & BLANKET Resource Kit by Online.
