Blankets that help end homelessness
In South America, an estimated 92 million people live without access to safe and reliable housing.
Each RIPL blanket funds a night of warmth and shelter for a family in crisis — a safe place to sleep while they rebuild their lives.
Without a roof over your head, few opportunities are possible
Families facing homelessness lose more than a place to sleep — they lose the foundation for work, school, and stability.
Across South America, nearly half of households are just one major setback from losing their home. When that happens, reliable temporary shelter is the first step back toward a stable life.

Your purchase creates a turning point
Each RIPL blanket sold funds a night of accommodation in a transitional shelter for a family experiencing homelessness. These shelters provide a safe environment where parents and children can regain stability, access support, and work toward a permanent home.
Creating a ripple effect of positive change
We partner with a network of local nonprofits who run transitional family housing across South America. These partners are dedicated to changing lives through practical, community-based support. They're a safe space for families that include shared kitchens and childcare facilities, and on-site staff who help with job placement, legal documentation, and access to healthcare, setting them on the path to stability beyond their time in the shelter.
