Sharing the BAND-AID® Love
~BAND-AID® w/ QUILTVENT® Technology Makes It Better~
Our family loves to find ways to give back to others, and especially if others have been there for us. We like to find a way to say thank you and give the love back. Recently we did a project with Champions for Kids to gather books for kids in our community. My daughter’s gym, Rise Gymnastics, agreed to help us collect books for kids in need. With their help we were able to collect over 280 books to donate to our local library who had been in need of new and gently used books for the community. We really appreciated the help they gave us, so we thought we would give them a gift of appreciation. While we were at the gym the other day we saw they were out of hand sanitizer, and we know they can always use more first aid products too. Unfortunately, gymnasts do get hurt at the gym from working out hard on the equipment. They need BAND-AID® products that work well. We decided to try and find them the new BAND-AID® with QUILTVENT® Technology that helps to keep wounds clean.
Giving Our Book Donation to the Library
We headed to Sam’s Club, because there’s no better place to find a great value! We know we wanted to get the gym a large hand sanitizer to last a while, as well as to look for first aid products for a great price. We were lucky enough to find both there! We picked up a huge bottle of hand sanitizer, a first aid kit, and some BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages with QUILTVENT® Technology. They had it all at Sam’s Club!
We decided to reorganize the first aid kit by replaced the generic Band-Aids inside with the awesome BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages with QUILTVENT® Technology. What’s so great about these bandages? The QUILTVENT® Technology creates air channels for breathability, as well as wicks away blood to keep wounds clean. A covered wound heals faster than an uncovered one, and BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages with QUILTVENT® Technology makes it better!
My daughter wanted to make the donation, so after reorganizing the first aid kit we purchased at Sam’s Club and adding the BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages with QUILTVENT® Technology to the kit, we took all the goodies over to the gym to surprise them with our gift. They were very appreciative to receive our gift! We told them how thankful we were that they helped us with the Champions for Kids project, so we wanted to do something nice for them too. They needed the hand sanitizer immediately, as kids were trying to get the last drops out of the bottle they had. They also said that they will be putting the first aid products to good use.
It was nice to give a gift of appreciation. We also love the fact that they will have these fantastic BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages with QUILTVENT® Technology on hand when my daughter needs them. She gets rips on her hands a lot from working out on the bars, so these will be really helpful to heal her quickly.

I haven’t heard of the new Band Aids yet. Those are neat! I love Band Aid brand. That’s such a great gift to give to the gymnastics place!
My youngest one is in the stage where he needs a band aid for everything, who can blame him with all the great designs! Great post.
Definitely going to be investing in lots of bandaids soon 🙂 thanks for the info!
Wow, I love that the band-aids have like a quilted material! It seems like they’d absorb a lot better.
These bandaids look really comfortable for the kids. Great to give back to the community too!
What a great cause. I will definitely buy these next time I need some. They are just getting better and better!! Thanks for sharing a nice story!
I have not heard of this band aid, Love all the information, I like that it soaks the blood away from the wound and allows air through to help keep it clean and dry.
That is so great that you are involving your kids in service! I have band aids on my shopping list so I will have to look for those quilted ones – thanks for sharing.
what a great cause! I have never heard of these band-aids – they look great!
I love that your daughter wanted to make the donation. Such a valuable experience for her! Great job!
What a great donation. K is so cute in that picture!
Great idea switching the Band-Aids.
Band Aid brands have always been the best, nice to see they are still moving forward with their products. Thanks for a great review.
What great donations! I love these new Band-Aids too!
I’m going to add those bandaids to my first aid kit in my preschool classroom!
SUch a great cause Kristin! I’l be buying these next time I need bandaids 🙂
Those look great! And Lord knows we use bandaids around here. 🙂 it’s so nice that you get your kids involved in these great community services. Love it!!
These sounds wonderful. JDaniel goes through band aids often.
I love that you get your kids involved in the community. I’m always in need of band aids, and my kids can’t enough of them. (My daughter especially). Thanks for the post!
oooooh, these band aids look great! And I actually need some new ones because all I have are finger bandaids…
That’s wonderful that you were able to donate 250 books! Those Band-Aids look great too. I’ll have to keep my eye out for them. We go through Band-Aids like crazy!
Love these!
We always turn to band aid. The newest one looks awesome!
Band-Aids are already great, but i think it’s awesome that they have found a way to improve them even more!
I have read other posts about the new bandaid, but this is the first time I have actually seen a picture of the wound pad. I love this!
I love that your gymnastics facility helped you with your book drive, and then you turned around and helped them out with a new, organized, first aid kit. What a great way to help your community. 🙂
This is a really great way to teach your children about being appreciative…and giving a wonderful, and useful gift at the same time! Well done!
good one!!
