All proceeds from 826 National's online store are used to support 826's numerous writing programs for students in Ann Arbor, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Seattle, San Francisco, and Washington DC. Thank you for your support and for joining in our work.

THE 826 NATIONAL SNUGGIE

Blanket. Sleeves. 826.

Yep, that's right. A snuggie! These wondrous sleeved blankets with our 826 National seal logo printed on them have become a hit among everyone in our office. However, don't take our word that these are a necessary addition to your closet. Just imagine these disastrous scenarios:

You are curled up on the couch reading the latest 826 student publication but a chilling wind keeps blowing. When you try to turn the pages, it whips away your blanket. When you hold the blanket down, it flips the pages before you're ready. A cold torso or a lost bookmark: Not a choice anyone should have to make
You arrive in the great outdoors for a weekend getaway and you realize you have forgotten a sleeping bag, a fleece, and the cape that's a key part of your Phantom of the Forest costume to scare all your friends
You received an invite to a business function and the dress code is blanket casual

A snuggie could have probably saved you while navigating each of these everyday disasters, and allowed you to represent your favorite nonprofit at the same time. And, as a special bonus, each 826 Snuggie comes with its very own reading light. Available in blue and black, the 826 Snuggie comes in very limited quantities so grab one today!
