@rickyclay32 Thanks Rick, to be clear, it's 10,000 total donations (which isn't just blankets but other items, like jackets, scarves, hats, pillows, etc.). Also, that total number is not just from our show (the "flagship" or "original" show in Nyack) but includes all items collected at every Blank-Fest show, ever. I didn't do this all on my own, by any stretch - even with the Nyack show, alone, I had TONS of help. I just want to be fully honest and not mislead anyone.

Once again, a great job for the betterment of our fellow man. 10,000 blankets for the homeless is a great thing.
