Binkeez for Comfort

She is a rockstar. And handling this surgery like the queen she is as always. Binkeez must come with us.

They arrived - and they are BEAUTIFUL! I can’t wait to share these with families this coming week.

We are truly appreciative of this donation. Thank you so much!

I absolutely love hearing how every department has been touched by Binkeez. and I am so honored to get to work with you on all of it! As always , thank you Sue!

I just have to express my sincere gratitude to Binkeez. These blankets mean so much to us. It seems so silly to even say that about a blanket. But it’s the warmth, the comfort, the reminder of home, the feeling of hope, and the softest snuggle ever. I was wrapped up in one for 9 hours as we waited for Ev in the OR yesterday. And Ev went back to the OR with hers. Thank you for all you do for so many families. You are making a difference

Thank you so much for sending our sweet Kyla Jo this beautiful blanket. She just loves snuggling up with it!

Binkeez for Comfort really has given my son exactly that--comfort. His excitement started when he received mail that was just for him, and it started to grow as he helped to open up what was inside of the package. The blanket is perfect for Hudson, as he loves all things safari. He loves to point to all of the animals and have mama say the sounds each animal makes. Hudson takes his blanket to bed with him and "pets" it goodnights since it is so soft! He also likes to squeeze it when he has his hospital visits at Riley Children's Hospital for his Retinoblastoma. This organization was so easy to contact and has had amazing communication since. We are so thankful that Binkeez was able to make our son feel so special!

My 2-year-old son Aiden was recently diagnosed with leukemia. Binkeez for Comfort provided us with a beautiful soft blanket with the most adorable print (foxes, bears and campers), that he loves and takes everywhere. It has kept him warm and cozy at the hospital, the outpatient infusion center and at home. Many thanks to Binkeez for Comfort for making our #leukemiawarrior(s) more comfortable on their journey.

We have so many pictures! It is our favorite blanket and we've been using it for every treatment since the day you gave it to us.

Wes loved his right up until the end. Now his siblings love them.

I Just wanted to say thank you from my heart! This sweet angelversary card I received in the mail just now made my entire night! ❤️ After all these years, to know you guys still think of him and my family means more than you could ever know. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Again, thank you and Binkeez For Comfort so very much!!!!!!

We are so thankful for wonderful organizations like Binkeez. Binkeez has been providing hospital approved blankets for children all over the world. We truly are stronger together.

Our son Bradley was initially diagnosed with Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis in 2017 and completed treatment in 2019. Bradley began having hip and back pain in October 2021 and after many scans it was determined there was a large mass on his pelvis. He had his biopsy at CHOA and on 12/15/2021 we found out that his LCH had unfortunately returned. It is extremely rare for LCH to return after being in remission greater than a year and even more rare for it to not return in the area it was previously…which was in his cranial area below his pituitary gland. Bradley is currently undergoing chemotherapy after having his 2nd port placed on 1/11/2022. He has chemo 5 days straight for one week out of the month for 6 cycles (6 months). Binkeez for Comfort shipped our son a gorgeous blanket that he absolutely loves!!! It brought him so much joy opening the package!! They were so quick to reach out and he received this generous gift so quickly! What an amazing company!!!

Very easy to work with Binkeez. Quick shipping. We are so grateful. Binkeez blanket brings comfort for my little guy. It is nice to have something that is his very own and special.

Averyana received her new blankie yesterday. It is safe to say, she loves it.

A very special thank you to Binkeez for Comfort! Our daughter Gabby who was recently diagnosed with Brain Cancer absolutely loves her Binkeez blanket :-). She takes it to treatment with her daily then comes home and lays under it. We are so thankful for such an amazing organization that provides love and comfort to children that are suffering from all types of diseases.

Binkeez for Comfort sent us the best blanket did our little girl. It only is it the softest, but somehow they even knew which colors were in her nursery. We can’t wait to get out of the hospital and finish up chemo so we can bring our little girl home.

My son was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma and we were/are scared. Sometimes it’s the little things, like a hug or a kind gesture that make a difference in those hard moments. Having a Binkeez for Comfort blanket is that hug. I can curl up with my baby and nurse him with a soft blanket that was made just for him with sharks and fishes swimming happily; honoring his love of the water.

My son Corey has been super blessed with a blanket from Binkeez.
Corey was diagnosed with Metastatic Osteosarcoma Oct 2019. He has went through a limb salvage surgery and a double lung surgery. Corey has completed in chemo and await to see next steps.

Thank you Binkee for making my child smile

Susan Posterro and binkeez for comfort has remembered my guy every year since I’ve lost him. Just got this sweet little angel bear remembering Cash. Thank you

Kayla Jade had Gtube surgery and was comforted with her binkeez for comfort blanket she loves it!

First off thank you for what you guys do!. It gives families something special just for their kiddos ... not just any , our hero’s. We take Kannons binkeez everywhere we go knowing that out there someone else is sending comfort from afar. We were honored when Rachael burrows said one was on the way!. Since then we have had a few friends get binkeez as well for their lil warriors... it makes tough days a lil better.

Hi Mina didn't feel good the other night, she was nauseous do to brain pressure, her Binkeez gave her comfort, and made her feel safe and warm

I love making a difference in someone's life. It makes my heart full and thank the Founder of Binkeez for letting me be a part of this amazing mission.

Kayla Jade had Gtube surgery and was comforted with her binkeez for comfort blanket she loves it.

Hello there! So, my little guy Oliver received a binkeez a few years ago when he was about a year old. He is 3.5 years old now and his Binkeez blankie which he lovingly calls his "Kiki" is his favorite blankie he has still to this day. I am reaching out to you to see if the fabric that is used is still the same? I have tried to find him a back up blankie with the same material and just cannot find him one he likes as much. He is obsessed with the texture of his Binkeez! He loves it. I feel badly asking, but am wondering if we could apply for a new Binkeez? His is getting pretty worn due to daily use.

Ollys Binkeez has been in the operating room as many times as Olly has. His Binkeez has comforted him in the ICU, has spent 2 birthdays in the hospital with him, has traveled with us to meet a new team of doctors across states. then made that same trip with us many many times again. It really has been his most favorite comfort item he has.

Well we think y’all are amazing and for a medical mama to see what you are doing for our kids it touches my heart. Colton truly drives himself off this stuff and that’s what’s his socks came about. This last week was so hard for everyone. And for us came new diagnosis and hardship that we lost a bit of our motivation. Working hard on putting all our feelings into doing what we do best! Thank you all again.

Binkeez and going with the boys where they go and staying warm on their field trips.

If you are looking for an organization to support this year I can 1000% recommend Binkeez for Comfort. They have been amazing and care about the recipients past and present. They make the most amazing blankets. Manual received one while inpatient and after he passed I ordered one with unicorns of course. It is our favorite blanket.

Thank you for always remembering my Ginny! It means the world to me!

Our daughter received her Binkeez two years ago before one of her major surgeries. It has been a continuous source of comfort since then. She says it is as soft as a unicorn's nose. We are very grateful for this gift of love. It is so much more than a blanket.

Louis received his Binkeez blanket and hasn’t let it out of his sight since. During this trying time of a cancer diagnosis - I can’t thank binkeez enough for bringing Louis just a little bit of comfort.

This organization sent the softest, most wonderful blanket to our son who is fighting Hodgkins lymphoma. He is now wrapped in positive energy that keeps him happy. We are so grateful to have such caring people helping us get through this challenging time. Thank you, Binkeez!

I put in a request for a Binkeez blanket for my grandson, Brandon ("Beemer"), who is recovering from a bone marrow transplant, and suffering graft vs host disease complications. Binkeez asked what his interests were, and then sent a perfect blanket, with dinosaurs. Beemer loves the blanket, and brought it this morning to his weekly lab appointment that requires a needle stick to draw blood. Binkeez has a wonderful mission, to bring comfort to those who are suffering medically.

We love our Binkeez and Binkeez Family! Saida was diagnosed with Spinabifida,Hydrocephalus,Chiari type 2,Neurogenic Bladder and Bowel,and Nonverbal Learning Disorder.She went thru many surgeries that were very scary.We were introduced to Binkeez and our life changed.She was sent a hug and love in form of a blanket.It was love at first sight.Saida had a different comfort before procedires,surgeries and more.She became just a bit braver each time.We met Susan and Saida still remembers her and considers her family.They are always there watching over and loving our kids,becoming so much of a valued part of our families.When our kids are sick,they show us love and check in on them and make not feel alone.We are also able to connect a bit with other binkeez families and thay opens are world up so much.I hope to be able to meet more binkeez families for love advice and comfort.They go above and beyond for all our kiddos and selflessly give their love.My daughters binkeez got really gross from hospital trip and they sent her a replacement quickly.She was wrapped in love quickly again and the tears dissapeared.

Our son Charles De Vries was diagnosed with B-ALL leukemia on September 5, 2018. Our lives changed for ever. We are thankful and grateful to our Almighty God for being with Charles every step of the way. Charles has been doing well so far with the treatment. He is our superhero. I love when foundations like Binkeez send love to our son. He loooves his new blanket. He was so excited to receive this blanket!!!
We are grateful to Binkeez for their love!! God bless them!!!!

When my younger son was little, Binkeez sent him this wonderful blanket! Ciarlo was born with Spina Bifida and hydrocephalus. He has had 10 surgeries and countless appointments, scans and X-rays in hi 9 short years and his blanket from Binkeez for comfort has accompanied him to it all! 4 years ago when Ciarlo’s big brother Dominic was diagnosed, at the age of 7 1/2, with Glioblastoma (an always fatal brain cancer) Ciarlo sent his special blanket along for Dominic to use at the hospital. Within just a few days, the wonderful staff at Binkeez sent Dominic his very own blanket! Dominic’s blanket accompanied him to EVERY chemo, radiation treatment and surgery/hospital stay during his 9 month battle. After Dominic passed away, Binkeez sent a beautiful wood carving with Dominicks name on it and named a blanket for Dominic. They sent us a small one for Ciarlo (then just 6) and a larger sized blanket for us to use. They have since also named a blanket for Ciarlo too! We all sleep with our blankets every night, they are no longer just for the hospital! They bring us comfort every night. For the first 3 Christmases after Dominic passed away, the staff at Binkeez also sent us special ornaments in Dominic’s memory that have so touched our hearts! We are so thankful for this wonderful nonprofit and the difference they are making for medically needy families!

Thank you so much Iris Abigail is absolutely loving her perfectly soft Binkeez

As Eleanor battles cancer every little bit helps during the tough times. Binkeez for Comfort went above and beyond by providing our little girl with a comfortable blanket. Her big brother likes to use it too and she doesn't mind sharing. I can't say enough about the generosity of Binkeez for Comfort.

Leah sleeps like an angel with her Binkeez Love!! Thank you so much. What y'all do is beautiful. God bless!!

My son Kingston was diagnosed with a life threatening liver disease called Biliary Atresia, and at 10 months old has gone through more than most adults. He had a surgery (Kasai procedure) that attempted (and failed) to give his liver a chance to drain. He had a liver transplant, and is doing great, but had spent collectively about 3 months in the hospital. I’m so excited about his Binkeez blanket, that was donated to us. It is SO beautiful and soft, and he loves it ! Spending so much time in hospital, anything that gives us comfort is so very important. What a beautiful company! Thank you so much!

Beautiful concept! Quick delivery and amazing communication from the company! We came home to our blanket after a hospital stay and it was such a lovely surprise to come home to. We’re in the hospital often unfortunately and this will for sure be on our list of things to bring when we go!

Thank you Binkeez for Comfort - Anthony received his Binkeez Blanket, he loved it so much that he wanted to go to bed right away: "It is soooo cozy, mom!". This blanket gives him so much warmth and comfort. We can’t thank you enough for this wonderful gift and we can feel the love that was put into making it. Thank you!

My children and I had the opportunity to volunteer our time to cut 120 yards of fabric to make blankets for a special mission with Gamerosity for children all across USA fighting cancer. We were able to make a donation that will provide 6 kids with a sponsored blanket. Our hearts are full knowing we were able to put a smile on these children’s faces during a difficult time in their lives. Looking forward to volunteering again soon. Thank you for all you do. ❤️

I met the Binkeez girls at St Jude while I was there for my 3 year life study test. I shared my testimony and they was amazed at my survivor years. They was nice enough to give me a kid size blanket and to my surprise they sent me a adult size blanket in the mail. This blanket is now a part of my survivor story

I have been with Binkeez from basically the beginning. I proudly bag and package the Binkeez and have also been part of the sewing team. I look forward to coming to volunteer. It is peaceful here, and I am doing a good thing and Binkeez is wonderful.

We came to know Binkeez in September 2013. My son was in the midst of a 30 day hospital stay and his team of doctors had just told us his beloved blankie had to go away, as it was believed to be the source of what was making him ill. Sad, and unsure how to tell him, I posted about it. The next day, we had a package on his hospital bed- his Binkeez. They heard his story and wanted to help. He took to it immidiately, and spent the next chapter of his life with us for every test, procedure and admission. We never left home without it!
Caleb gained his angel wings in May of 2014, and his Binkeez still brings us smiles and warmth. We all wanted to have it close by, and hugged it often. We were also blessed with an inspiration Binkeez, done in memory of Caleb, and we use and love those daily as well! Binkeez will always hold a special place in our hearts- not only for the love and support they showed Caleb, but for the love and support they have showed our family since the day we became part of the Binkeez family

Binkeez for Comfort brings love and light into the families with children fighting bigger battles than most of us ever will. It’s more than just a blanket. When you get your Binkeez it’s like getting a virtual hug from a whole entire community of people who have your back! You can bring it with you to the hospital when you need to feel brave, on adventures and trips to make memories, or just cuddle it when you need a reminder that you are not alone on this journey. We are so thankful for our Binkeez and everything it means to us.

I have worked with inked in some capacity since it started. Binkeez always follows the lead of what is in the best interest of the children and families. There is alot the general public does not know on rules and guidelines which Binkeez has to and always follows. I am happy to be part of an organization like Binkeez as a Board Member and who spends time weekly in Binkeez seeing the day to day operations.

Daniel has epilepsy, Lennox gastaut syndrome, extreme global developmental delay, amongst many other things. He is a frequent flyer at our local hospital. His favorite activity is cuddling and thanks to binkeez for comfort he has a new beautiful soft blanket to snuggle in.❤

It is the absolutely most perfect blanket!! My 3 mo old daughter Indie loves things soft and this is the cutest and softest blanket in out house!! Thank you so much its lovely and she loves being wrapped up in it!!

I can not tell you enough how wonderful this organization is!!! My son had B-cell ALL and spends a lot of time at home due to isolation. He loves the soft touch of his Binkeez. The people who I was blessed to come in contact with through this organization were so amazing. I cannot say enough how awesome they have been!

They reached out to me on facebook. It is so nice to have someone make a blanket for my 5 month old heart baby Jacob! Thank you so much, he loves it!!

This organization is absolutely wonderful. My daughter has had a tough time. This blanket out a big
Smile on her face

You guys are amazing!! My son loves the blanket!! It's so comforting and helps him relax while he's going through treatments. He loves the dinosaur print!!

Eliza received a Binkeez for Comfort blanket at home. She has fallen in love with it and snuggles it every night to go to sleep! She’s been fighting a virus at home the past two weeks and has had a few rough days. Her Binkeez has brought her so much comfort! I am beyond grateful for this amazing gift for my sweet girl

We couldn’t be more pleased or any happier with these amazing blankets that we received for our son Lampton and our family!!! Binkeez For Comfort is such an amazing organization and they are truly angels on earth for what they do and have done for so many!!! We are so honored and so blessed that they donated not only 1 but 2 blankets to our family!! These blankets are amazingly soft and make you feel like your at home if your away for another hospital stay!! They really do comfort you when you’re not in the comfort of your own home. If you are looking for a nonprofit organization to donate to, Binkeez For Comfort is a great one to choose!! Thank y’all again!!

Binkeez, oh no words can Express how amazing this company is. This blanket is so soft. My boy absolutely loves is and is so comforted by it.

My daughter recently received a Binkeez blanket. It is beautiful and so soft and so warm and comfy. I am beyond pleased with this new blanket. As a medically fragile special needs girl this new blanket will bring so much to our time at home and also our time in the hospital. I would highly recommend Binkeez for Comfort.

We stumbled upon your blankets when our 15 year old son, Alex, was inpatient at Levine Children’s Hospital. Alex, who is diagnosed with Mitochondrial Disease, went into respiratory arrest on November 28th. December 10th, we made the heart wrenching decision to have a tracheostomy done. Alex spent 50 days inpatient during this last hospitalization and finally came home on January 16th. And just last week, we received his super soft blanket. The weight of it and the softness just calmed his body when I laid it on him tonight. We can’t thank you enough for getting it to us so quickly. It is perfect!

Our 3yr daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia in October 2018. She loves blankets and the one sent to us from Binkeez has been by far her must have. Every night, she has to have this on her and her clinic/hospital visits. A fantastic organization that has provided a great blanket for our daughter as she fights to be survivor. Thank you so much!

My daughter Nevaeh hat a Binkeez. She absolutely loves it! It helps to comfort during the many times when she needs it most.

This was an amazing gift my daughter was having a rough day and when she got her new blanket she covered up and went to Sleep she woke up so happy talking about the mermaids and fish on her blanket she absolutely loves it

We were fortunate enough to receive a Binkeez for Comfort blanket during his 4th round of chemotherapy. He had been diagnosed with AML (leukemia) in July 2016 had to have a bone marrow transplant, had Fanconi Anemia, Autism and Sensory Disorder. He absolutely loved his blanket! It was super soft, the best quality material and washed wonderfully. Manuel unfortunately passed away in November 2018. Binkeez for Comfort were kind enough to send us a gorgeous memorial piece that I will always cherish. This company went above and beyond when they didn’t have too. #teammanuel #unicornstrong

Leila received her Binkeez and it’s extremely soft and comfortable and has become her favorite blanket.

Wonderful organization. They sent Anna the softest blanket. She has had a rough week so this definitely has helped make her smile.

Binkeez for Comfort has been amazing to all of us! Not only did they make my 7 year old son, with Leukemia, a special blanket that was made just for him and named after him - but then they surprised my two daughters and blessed them with their very own, unique, Binkeez Blankets! Then to top it all off, they gave me a family size of the blanket named after my son. They never ask for a thing in return. They are all loving, caring, and wonderful to every family and they go above and beyond to make each child, and their families, feel special and loved. Binkeez will always have our love, appreciation, and support. They've been such a blessing!

I heard of binkeez for comfort off of a page I follow so I applied for it for my son and pretty much immediately got an email saying he qualified for a blanket. The blanket came so fast I was shocked! His blanket is so soft I wanted to keep it for myself. I didn’t expect the blanket to be so soft and cute. He loved it as soon as I gave it to him. So glad I applied for one!

My son is 3 years old. May 2018 his father and I were told that his heart was failing and that he needed a heart transplant. He received the Berlin heart to bridge him to transplant. June 2018 his new heart arrived! We are now 6 months post transplant. When I heard of this organization I knew Aries had to have one! The blanket is so soft and cozy he absolutely loves it! Thank you so much Binkeez!

My daughter is 7 and has Leukemia. She's the coziness, most snuggly little girl and chemo has limited her mobility. Jean at Binkeez quickly sent her the most beautiful blanket that is perfect for us both to fit under. She brings it chemo and it takes away some of the pain for all of us.
Thank you for helping my little girl feel better through this horror.
Marisa Rae

Thank you for providing these wonderful blankets. My daughter Kelsey is 18 and was diagnosed with APML Dec 5th 2017 at Hasbro Children's Hospital in Providence RI. After a 30 day stay she is home now but continues sleeps with her blanket every night and takes it to clinic with her everyday.

Update: As of August 3rd 2018 Kelsey is offically in REMISSION, but continues to use her Binkeez Blanket everynight

We absolutely love this organization! They sent my sweet Emily a beautiful snuggley blanket that we take everywhere. Emily has a very hard time sleeping in new places so hospitals were rough for us but now we take our binkeez and she sleeps like a charm.she has that piece of comfort that she is use to at home and it is a wonderful thing. They are a great caring foundation! They have sent a lot of our cerebral palsy warrior,friends blankets too!

My niece Skilya has Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome and has survives a stroke when she was 8 months old. This nonprofit put a big smile on her face with this special blanket.

My son Calvin was born at just 1 pound 7 ounces at 23 weeks gestation. Binkeez for Comfort sent Calvin the most amazing blanket to comfort him through his daily battle to survive. Their generous gift means more than words can describe. Calvin loves his binkeez!

Ella getting ready for another surgery. She is all relaxed & cuddled up w/her Binkeez! She gets so many compliments on her soft beautiful blanket! Thank you.

My little guy spends so much time in the hospital. We are on day 18 of this current admission in fact. I decided after seeing how cozy some of our friends wrapped in Binkeez, to apply for one for Keegan. Binkeez replied within hours to me. And his Binkeez blankey arrive within days! Keegan loves his soft blanket, and it will bring him so much comfort in the days to come. We are so grateful for what Binkeez does for kidddos like my Keegan.

Katie has cancer and the chemo makes her skin very sensitive. She loves her binkeez because it is so soft and comfy. It has definitely become the favorite. Her big sister has tried to trade her several things for it but Katie loves it and won't give it up. Lol. She keeps it close by at all times.

My son is as in the PICU for respiratory issues when I came across Binkeez. They quickly sent my son a blanket that he carries with him everywhere. From doctor appointment to therapies, to grandmas house. Thank you so much Binkeez for comfort!!

My son was diagnosed at 2 1/2 years with stage 4 neuroblastoma. Binkeez4comfort was one of the first organizations to send a gift that completely wrapped him and his siblings in love. They needed that comfort at such a scary time and now almost 2 years out their blankets are still taken on every trip and go with my son to every scan and test. Could not say enough about what this place does for those in need.

I am blessed to be a Board Member to this amazing organization. I am a Pediatric Oncology Nurse and mom to a Childhood Cancer Survivor, I am able to see first hand how amazing Binkeez for Comfort is, and the impact it makes on patients and their families.. This is not just a blanket , this is comfort and love wrapped around a child in the most difficult days. I cannot say enough about how important this is!

Amazing!! My daughter loves her binkeez blanket and it came in a very timely manner
Thank you so much

Tears came to my eyes as I opened my Binkeez blanket box. Being sick is difficult, but nothing comes close to the pain of feeling scared and alone. With this Binkeez by my side at appointments and hospital visits, I will feel less alone and more loved. Words can not express how grateful I am for this comfort item. Not only is it my favorite color and a beautiful pattern, but it’s soft fabric makes me comfortable and relaxed.

We adopted Jett in China on 12/18/17. We were able to bring his Binkeez to wrap him in love from day one. He has a life long blood disorder and will soon be getting to treatment that he needs when we get back to USA. Thank you Binkeez for loving our family from our Jade to our Jett.

You guys have once again blown me away with your most precious and thoughtful gift in memory of Brooks. It is so perfect and I plan to keep it up all year long just like his wooden angel. Thank you for what you do!!!

Our 2017 Binkeez ornament in memory of Keegan. These ornaments are beautifully crafted and we look forward to ours every year! Thank you goes out to our @binkeezforcomfort family heart Merry Christmas! #forourangel #missmyson#binkeezlove

Thank you Binkeez for Comfort! My heart is grateful beyond words

Always remembering our Super Jack!! Thank you!!!!!!

Last weekend we decorated a little Christmas tree for Raul, battery powered lights and all! Today I received his ornament from Binkeez for Comfort, which couldn't have been more perfect! I love that they still remember each year all their kids who have passed away.

I look forward to receiving one of these beautiful ornaments for Christmas each year. You have no idea how comforting it is to my broken heart.
Thank y'all so much for ALWAYS remembering My Sweet Azalee and all the rest of the Angels who have left this world too soon.
Y'all are Heaven sent to a grieving heart heart

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for thinking of Rylan and my family. It means more than you could possibly know. XOXO

This non-profit goes above and beyond to make Children with illness feel comfort. They were the very first to reach out to us when my daughter was 13 months old and diagnosed with Retinoblastoma. The love and support is not the only amazing thing offered, the blanket has become a staple in or Cancer journey. For the past year and a half this blanket has brought my daughter comfort in some of the hardest times. I would recommend their support to any other parent going through a hard journey of childhood illness.

Matthew has a very rare terminal illness that unfortunately means many hospital stays, and visits with specialists who work hours away from home. Through every step of his journey, the one thing that remains a constant comfort to him is his blanket from Binkeez! To Matt, it smells like home and feels like love, making the painful and scary seem a little less so. For us, just seeing him hold his blanket close allows us to breathe a little easier, knowing he's feeling safe.

I remember the exact moment that Binkeez for Comfort touched my heart. I was at work when I received a message from Susan, the incredible founder of Binkeez. Susan shared that they had a fabric with a "swirl-like pattern" that she wanted to dedicate to my cousin Matthew "Swirls" Cirelli. I was immediately brought to tears and overwhelmed with love. My cousin Matt (his nickname was Swirls for his red curly hair!) passed away in December of 2013 after a 2-year battle with Ewing's Sarcoma. In his honor, we started Swirls Around the World to continue his legacy. I immediately sent Susan's message to my family, and we were all so speechless and honored. A few days later, we received the most beautiful gift in the mail ,The Matt "Swirls" Binkeez. It was truly one of the greatest moments; the excitement of opening the package from Susan and Binkeez and seeing the Swirls pattern, and hugging the blanket so tight that I felt the love that went into making this blanket; it was just like Christmas morning, but even better.
Just this month, my family and I had the opportunity to visit Susan and The Binkeez store to see where all of the magic happens, and it was such an incredible day. When I walked in to the Binkeez store, I felt all the love in the world. I was surrounded by beautiful photos of pediatric warriors. Susan shared with us the stories of these incredible children, and each Binkeez that was dedicated in their honor. She told us the story of how Binkeez originated; to honor her mother's work of sewing over 40,000 blankets for children in third-world countries. Susan continued her mother's legacy with the founding of Binkeez for Comfort. Displayed on the wall was some of the blankets that Susan's mother had sewn, serving as an everyday inspiration of love. Susan welcomed us with big hugs, and from the moment she sent us the message about the Swirls fabric, she became family. Binkeez for Comfort is for the children and each blanket is truly more than just a blanket. When you hug a Binkeez Blanket, you can feel the love, warmth, and careful thought that went into the blanket and the child that the blanket is dedicated to. Binkeez is love.

Susan gifted us with four Matt "Swirls" Binkeez to spread the love with. Meeting Susan and seeing where the true magic takes place left my heart feeling so beyond full. My family and I are so thankful and blessed that Susan and Binkeez for Comfort came into our lives. Susan is a true angel on Earth and her dedication to stay true to Binkeez and the children is so incredibly inspiring. We are forever grateful.

My family and I are already planning another visit to volunteer and to be apart of The Binkeez Mission of love.

Thank you Susan and thank you Binkeez for Comfort, for continuing to make a difference and spreading love and inspiration around the world. You will forever have a special place in our hearts.

Love,
Jen Caruso

I connected with Binkeez for Comfort three years ago when my son Bryce was scheduled for open heart surgery the next month. I was met with such care and compassion on the other end of that first e-mail. Bryce received his Binkeez rather quickly and fell in love with it right away. It was a great source of comfort for us both before his surgery and during his recovery. Binkeez for Comfort is an amazing organization that does much more than provide blankets. Outside of the charitable work they do for, and in honor of, so many, they are truly an organization full of love and compassion. Any time I've ever been in contact with anyone within the organization I've felt like I was chatting with a dear friend. Bryce still, three years later, loves his Binkeez and snuggles, cuddles, and sleeps with it all the time. The pictures I've included are from when he first received his binkeez, and then more recently.

When Ray is sick and in the hospital, he likes comforts from home. We bring stuffed animals, soap, lotions and other items from home but the one thing he likes most of all is a blanket. For the past 2 years, I have used a toddler blanket that we used to use on our rocking chair when I held him, but he got too big. Now that he has a Binkeez, I know what he will want.

Thank you so much for sending the Binkeez to Ray. He loves it! ! It is so soft and cuddly...like him! He smiled the first time it was against his skin. He had asked for it the past 2 nights when I put him in bed. It is already become part of his nighttime routine.

Thank you! !!

Caiden's response to his binkeez was so genuine and he melts me over his pure love of little things in life. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the amazing blanket for my son Benjamin! It arrived on the same day he came home from his shunt placement surgery! Unfortunately, just a couple of days later, we had to go back to the hospital with the flu and pneumonia. His Binkeez for Comfort blanket has been perfect for him to cozy up under, and much nicer than the hospital blankets."

In August Addison received a very special blanket from Binkeez for Comfort. This blanket went with Addison to the hospital and eventually went to Germany with her for treatment. She loved how soft it was. Today we received a package from them. Inside was this super soft blanket with arrows, a beautiful cross with Addison's name, a card, wing and halo. Thank you so much! I cried when I opened it

My little heart warrior, AJ, LOVES his blanket! He underwent his 5th heart procedure (3 open hearts and 2 caths - this most recent cath placed a stent in his heart just 2 weeks ago). Thank you so much for making him smile so big!!

Thank you for doing right by Epic, his family and all the kiddos & families

Lucy was discharged yesterday from Boston Children's after being in a hospital for nearly month. While in Boston, she received her Binkeez while recovering from open heart surgery. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Recovery will still be a journey, but we are so glad Lucy has her Binkeez to bring with her!

Epic's blanket arrived just in time for his post opt appointment with the oncologist:) We love it so sooooo much . Thank you so very much

I just wanted to let you know we received Isaiah's Binkeez today! It's perfect and so comfy. It means so much. This is such an awesome organization

Ellie loves her blanket. Here she is getting a double arm rub with it.

Binkeez started gifting blankets to the bravest of fighters not long after my three-year-old son, Carter, passed away from a brain tumor. It was not long after his death that Susan approached me and asked if she could commemorate Carter’s life with a Binkeez. From that moment, our partnership was born. She innately knew that I needed a way to honor my son and let his legacy continue.

In the four years since Carter’s death, I have worked with Susan to ensure that the lives of children currently fighting cancer receive Binkeez to help comfort them in the darkest of moments. The partnership that we have created spurs from the love in both of our hearts. Together, we work to ensure that the children of St. Jude have Binkeez and that Carter’s life continues to spread joy here on earth.

My most recent endeavor has been to create a legacy program for Carter’s with Binkeez to ensure that these treasured blankets touch the lives of as many children at St. Jude as possible. Binkeez will be given to the children in the PICU each month and we will continue to travel to St. Jude each year to ensure that these children have the security and comfort of a Binkeez.

Binkeez is much more than a blanket. It is a ((HUG!!)), it is security, it is love. Each time a Binkeez embraces a child, the smile by the recipient is simply the acknowledgement of each.

I am honored to be a part of the Binkeez family and to have them represent my son’s legacy with a beautiful mission and an incredible love for the bravest of fighters.

Nicole received her beautiful Binkeez blanket today and wants to say Thank You!!

Thank you for the blanket David is resting from his procedure .. he would not let go of his blanket and got to have it with him the whole time thank you so much

Thank you for the blanket. Dustin has enjoyed it. It is so soft .

When it's 30 degrees outside, momma and sweet girl enjoy their Binkeez. So blessed to be cared about by such amazing people.

Hi it's Gaby, I wanted to let you know that I took my amazing binkeez for my hospital stay. I was supposed to be admitted for next week Friday but on Wednesday I received a phone call from my doctor saying that she wants me to come in this Friday instead. Usually things go pretty well while at the hospital but this time it was a bit more rough because I was really dehydrated so I had to get tons of fluids and lab test which delayed us a bit. Today we did the second round of my endoscopy injections to help my Gastroparesis and I received lots of nausea meds and also breathing treatments. The treatments went fine but I have an infection which means I'll need antibiotics. I don't know what type of infection but they did a biopsy and sent it to the lab. Overall I'm doing pretty well and everyone loves my binkeez. Now I'm just trying to rest and not overthink things. Thank you so much for my binkeez

My son, Tyler, and I met the Binkeez crew at CureFest and he received this beautiful blanket shortly after. It brings great comfort especially on sick days - and even on road trips! Binkeez is the best and we truly appreciate your kindness generosity!

I can not say enough about Binkeezforcomfort.org and Susan Posterro.
They truly are amazing.
They have passion and

ecause of Arielle. Miss Arielle received her first Binkeez on February 14, 2014 during a bone marrow transplant for JMML. We received the most note from her momma this morning....

"Not enough likes in the world...my daughter received her Binkeez almost 3 years ago at Boston Children's Hospital...it became THE blanket. She has to sleep with it every night and it goes everywhere with us! Such a blessing! Keep going Binkeez! Your work is so appreciated!"

As we shared with her heart. "Thank you for your {love} oh we have just begun on our mission of love for the bravest of lives. It makes our hearts so happy to hear how much your daughter's Binkeez has and continues to mean on her brave journey. The thing about Binkeez is this is about love and children can feel our love through each Binkeez. Love can never be washed out."

Because of you Arielle...today and everyday.

We received our blanket !! Thank you so much she loves it. As soon as we got home from our trip to st.jude she fell asleep with it!

Every year since Azalee has passed away I have received one of your beautiful ornaments. The feeling I get when it arrives in the mail is like the feelings a child gets on Christmas morning


Thank you for doing this in honor of our beautiful Angels. You never know how much something like this means until you lose a child... remembering them means EVERYTHING.
Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart.

This is my otherwise healthy typical child who ended up in the er last night and the one thing he wanted to bring with him was his sibling blanket! From a genuinely thankful heart, thank you for the blessings you give to our children!! You give them something to help get them through difficult times, in a small way parents can't. I will be forever grateful for y'all. I just want you to know how grateful we are, for what you do. We are thankful for te sibling blanket, it has comforted him the 40 days his sister was in the hospital and now he is here himself and it gives him comfort.

Thank you for sharing!! My youngest was given a binkeez for her own hospital stays and when I had my first hospital admission, she gave me her binkeez so I could be comfy. That is how I came to have my own binkeez so that she could keep hers to snuggle up with. Mine always comes to the hospital with me now and my girls love to snuggle up under it.

Not a single night has gone by past three years I believe that he has not had his Binkeez blankets with him .

Both of my children where in the hospital at the same time recently. My youngest had a Binkees for Comfort on his bed waiting for him. You have no idea how much this helped him! We have had a lot of changes in our house medically and just over all this last year. Being in the hospital often is hard! A blankie that is the softest thing ever makes it all better. He didn't want to use the hospital blanket at all the entire admission.
Here's a picture of him with it (making a silly face) when he started to feel better. Thank you!

We are so thankful for the love and peace you've brought into our lives! Sending all our love to you guys

The love you made Carrys on with our family forever! Love you Susan!!

I want to say thank you, thank you for what your company does!!! Isabel had surgery on the 1st of November and what was supposed to be only 7 days had turned into 22 days and counting!!! I know her original had a tear and y'all made her a second which is what she chose to bring and she doesn't let it out of her sight. It has been one of two of the biggest comforts for her and I truly pray the lord blesses you 10 fold.

Today we walked in a local parade with Make A Wish- Katie has her Binkeez on her lap and her brother in her heart

Thanks for the blanket that sent my son Matthew is happy with his new blanket is a very happy child full of so much life. God bless you and thank you for your love.

My daughter Chloe (7yo) was provided with a Binkeez for Comfort blanket recently as she has Down syndrome and was recently diagnosed with leukemia. She has been given many different blankets, but something about this one is special to her. I guess the way it wraps her up and snuggles her. And since it’s summer she is in shorts and t-shirts more and I think the incredibly soft fabric feels wonderful against her skin. She immediately wrapped herself up in it when I opened it and sleeps with it every night. It is a very special blanket and means the world to us. We are so thankful for being included in their program.

Susan you are a blessing. YOU are a dream maker, YOU live by faith and inspire many.. YOU inspire me

I love you all and I still feel so lucky to have been able to work with you during my year as Miss West Virginia. This company is responsible for some of the most priceless moments I have experienced here on earth. I'll thank you for the rest of my life for that reason alone.

Binkeez for Comfort is an amazing non-profit!! Providing loving, caring, sensitive support for cancer patients and their families is the ONLY mission and goal of this charity. Laser focus is on the needs and support of the children suffering and the families who are trying to be strong. The principals in Binkeez are sensitive souls who instinctively recognize that each child's experience and each family's challenges are unique and must be handled in a loving and caring manner. Always celebrating life - no matter how short it may be. Always channelling hope!!!

The founder of Binkeez for comfort and I met though my request to use her captivating photos of Dorian (#dstrong) Murray in the children's book for and about children w cancer, entitled Leaving a Mark ; one I collaborated w Dorian and his mother to write . After learning more about what this non profit does and Susan's pure heart for children facing illness - I was inspired to feature Binkeez in the book as a trusted place to which to donate, and further , I will be donating all of my royalties from the book to trusted non profits and Binkeez is one of my most beloved . Their heart for children is unmistakable and their resolve is inspiring . Thankful to know they are a light in an otherwise dark time for children .

They care about everyone they give a blanket to. My daughter was born at 32 weeks gestation and was in the nicu. There was a request sent in and they sent out a beautiful and soft blanket to her. My daughter loves this blanket and rubs her cute little face on the blanket. They are amazing.

Our whole family was wrapped in Binkeez love last year. We were fortunate to meet Susan while she was visiting our local Children's hospital. She was so kind to make time in her busy schedule to meet our family. Not only did she wrap our little one with a super cuddly Binkeez, she also gave a "family size" one that matched. His big brother also received a special Clay Buchholz Foundation Binkeez which he has snuggled with daily. During our little one's most recent scans, he was wrapped in his blanket so that when the sedation wore off in recovery, he would be soothed by the smell of home and the comfort and warmth of the Binkeez family embrace. Thank you Susan and the Binkeez team for all that you do - your dedication, hardwork and generosity of time, talent and love will live with us forever.

Binkeez is amazing. Corbin received his first one a few years ago. It was well loved and used daily/nightly. When he outgrew it they sent him a new one. Just recently on a trip he lost it, and has been very sad and had some sleepless nights without it. After contacting Binkeez and explaining what happened, they will be sending him a new one. What they do is absolutely amazing and helps kiddos like Corbin more than they or anyone will ever know. His Binkeez has become his comfort and he does not leave home without it, wether it be for a trip or a procedure or just a dr visit!

Binkeez is an amazing group of people who have supported my son and our family since the beginning of our diagnosis! Last April my 22 month old Nicholas was diagnosed with Stage 4 high risk Neuroblastoma. We received our first blanket the second day! The fabric is carefully picked and it is the softest thing you could imagine (even after a million washes). Nick is doing amazing, and I truly believe that Susan and the Binkeez gang are apart of the love and support that surrounds us!! We could never thank them enough for everything! :)

Binkeez has brought so much comfort to our son Marco who is being treated for high risk neuroblastoma at Boston children's hospital. We never ever leave home without his blanket! Such a wonderful organization full of people with enormous hearts!!!

My son Jack was diagnosed with stage 4 high Rick neuroblastoma at 4 months old. It was shortly after, he received his first Binkeez blanket. The blankets are so soft and warm, and make you feel at home during hospital stays. But Binkeez for comfort is more than blankets. They wrap each child and family in love and support. I know they genuinely care for Jack and our family. They have been such great cheerleaders and offer great support during his fight. Susan, the founder, is the most compassionate and caring person. I am happy to call her my friend. We absolutely love Binkeez for Comfort!
