Binky Patrol Southern Connecticut Southern Connecticut's Binky Patrol Chapter... providing blankets to critically ill and traumatized children in the greater Bridgeport area and beyond.

This is the Monroe/ Trumbull Chapter of Binky Patrol. We deliver blankets to kids who need comfort. Our blankets routinely go to the local hospitals and shelters as well as to schools and individual homes when we hear of kids needing a hug. Blankets should be baby or child-sized and can be crocheted, knitted, quilted, or made out of fleece. For more information on Binky Patrol, visit http://www.binkypatrol.org/

A few weeks ago I surprised the founder of Binky Patrol Comforting Covers, and my good friend, Susan Finch, with a video tribute showing the impact of Binky Patrol on not only the recipients but alll the amazing volunteers who make it all possible . It was an early 30th anniversary gift and she absolutely loved it.

She often refers to the video a "scrapbook" of our chapter, and she is absolutely right. This video represents all of what you have done over the last 12 years.

With our official anniversary date coming up later this week, I thought it was the perfect time to share it all with you. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this video and our story --- whether it was by the smile on your child's face when they received the binky, your hands that created the binkies and supported us as sponsors, or your hearts that welcomed us as a host or drop off spot, we truly appreciate you.

We hope many of us will join us on Saturday at Old Towne Restaurant in Trumbull from 11-1 to share even more stories and celebrate 30 years of an amazing nonprofit!

The video will be in the comments -

Our binkies may travel far from time to time, but they always bring the same amount of comfort. Thank you to the volunteers who always help pay the UPS bill! 😍

Real people, real impact. Next week is Binky Patrol's 30 year anniversary, so let's take a moment to reflect on the people and families this organization has helped. Thank you Jeanne Binky Patrol Southern Connecticut for dedicating countless hours of love and dedication to provide comfort to those in your community.

We are less than two weeks away from Binky Patrol's official 30th anniversary! 🎉

As we celebrate this milestone, founder Susan Finch has been sharing clips from a special video gift from Binky Patrol Southern CT highlighting the impact binkies have had on children over the years. So many of us also spent time reflecting together on what makes Binky Patrol so special.

---Episode 95 features Susan, Barb, and myself as we reflect on the history of Binky Patrol Southern Connecticut, how our chapter got started, and some of our favorite memories over the years.
--- Episode 96 brings together Binky Patrol directors from across the country to share stories, memories, and reflections on 30 years of comforting children in need.

Here are some of the knit and crocheted binkies that were done/dropped off this week. I think most of the yarn had been donated. Thank you to our knitter, crocheters, and donors!

If anyone wants yarn, I have several big bags waiting to become binkies. Message me or the page if you are local and want to take a ride to Monroe and come “shop.” You could pick it up this weekend 😀
