2011-04-13
NEW YORK, NY, April 13, 2011 (Press-News.org) Blanket America, a charitable linen manufacturer that donates blankets through its BUY 1, GIVE 1 charity model, is offering daily giveaways on its Facebook page, http://www.facebook.com/BlanketAmerica.

Every day, the blankets manufacturer hides the company symbol, a heart, on one of the product pages on http://www.BlanketAmerica.com and posts a hint to its location on Facebook. The first person who finds the heart and posts the link to http://www.facebook.com/BlanketAmerica wins that product.

"Oh my goodness! I never win anything, this is fabulous! And to win it from such a great company, such as Blanket America, makes it even more wonderful," said Kayla Robison, the first giveaway winner, in a Facebook message.

Blanket America is doubling its Facebook interaction through the giveaway by asking fans "What should we love tomorrow?" after the item of the day has been discovered. This is on top of the textile manufacturer's regular Facebook updates, which keep fans engaged well into the evening.

"Blanket America has gained a tremendous following on Facebook, Youtube and http://www.BlanketAmerica.com. We wanted to show our gratitude and thought a Facebook contest was a really fun and rewarding way for us to interact with our supporters and continue to spread the word about Blanket America," said Elizabeth Brown, co-founder of Blanket America.

Blanket America was formed by the leading linen manufacturer for stores such as JC Penney's and Macy's. Blanket America spearheaded the aforementioned BUY 1, GIVE 1 model, which enables consumers to provide immediate aid to those in need. For every blanket, cotton sheet set, pillow, towel, window treatment, t-shirt, or other textile purchased on http://www.BlanketAmerica.com or its microsite http://www.BlanketAmericaGives.com, Blanket America donates a blanket to someone in need. Blanket America also sells many of its high quality products for up to 80% off of listing prices, so shoppers can save money while contributing to poverty relief.

To enter the contest visit Blanket America on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/BlanketAmerica. Customers can also follow Blanket America on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/BlanketAmerica.
