The Sackcloth Story
The Story
"Not all people choose to become homeless, some people just need a second chance."
"Not all people choose to become homeless, some people just need a second chance."
Founder of Sackcloth & Ashes, Bob Dalton, was inspired to help the homeless population when his mother, a hardworking single mother, found herself living on the streets in 2013. Because of his mother's story, Bob realized that not all people choose to become homeless, some people just need a second chance. He was inspired to call his local homeless shelters to ask what they needed most - they all said blankets. That's when he founded Sackcloth & Ashes. For every blanket you purchase, we give a blanket to your local homeless shelter.

June 1st, 2018 Sackcloth & Ashes launched its first campaign called Blanket the United States. Our goal is to donate ONE MILLION blankets to homeless shelters by 2024.
