MEET OUR FOUNDERS

Founders, Ralph and Kathy Knauss had a vision that making hand-made blankets would be the best way they could share love and comfort to people in need. They formed BELIEF, Inc a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with their son, Max and other devoted founding board members whose support and commitment have helped BELIEF to thrive. From  people diagnosed with terminal illnesses and debilitating diseases, to the impoverished, homeless and those displaced by natural disasters, BELIEF blankets have since warmed the bodies, hearts and spirits of over 300 people and their families, nationwide.

The name "BELIEF" itself is an acronym for Bringing Endless Love Into Every Family".  Kind words of encouragement, prayers  and the gifting of BELIEF Blankets are just the beginning of  the services BELIEF, Inc. provides. BELIEF's mission has been twofold: providing BELIEF blankets to those who need care and comfort and selling blankets online so they may be purchased and sent to anyone, anywhere in the world. EVERY BELIEF blanket purchase provides enough funding for other BELIEF blankets to be made and donated. All BELIEF blankets include consistent messages of love and prayer, a tradition followed by the organization since its inception.

ALL monies collected from the sale of BELIEF blankets plus generous donations received, are fully reinvested into BELIEF, Inc. These funds are used for buying more materials needed to bestow more blessings. In the future, BELIEF hopes for a surplus of funds, so families who are struggling with needs for food, clothing, transportation, lodging, temporary housing, childcare and countless other needs can also be assisted. It is Ralph and Kathy's continued BELIEF that God will bless this ministry throughout the years, nurturing and growing it as large as He sees fit for His service. BELIEF is thankful  for those who freely invest their time, talent and treasures into serving others through Him. BELIEF, Inc.'s continued mission is to share God's love, comfort and hope to those in need, today, tomorrow and for generations to follow.
