"The Wings of Love are a blanket that is hand made and given to people in need of healing or comfort. I made the first one for my friend who was diagnosed with breast cancer. Then through a misunderstanding of what I had made one of my sisters told my other sister that I should make her one and the wing shape came from there ..."

Dear FTWOL members,
The following is an introduction to the loving works of the International Association of Touchers (IAT), a non-profit organization. The International Association of Touchers are a group of individuals working together for the betterment of man kind, one touch at a time. This website was created in the hopes 1. to demonstrate the Wings of Love project, 2. to centralize a place where all IAT members can collaborate, and 3. to track the Wings of Love 'flight path' (i.e. a list of where all the Wings have landed around the world).
We provide our patented Wings of Love
shawls to those who need them, like people suffering from cancer or other serious illness and/or their caregivers. Even newborns at our local hospital can be the recipient of our labor of love. These Wings of Love are distributed through other charitable organizations who meet the recipients on the front lines and can feel
the need
and then feel
the results
. Each shawl is hand made, with the love sewn right in, and comes with this special message:
Those who are touched, continue to touch others in their lives and this is how the love will spread around the world, one touch at a time.
This is how we do it. With help from you, and others like you, we collect donations of cash, materials and most importantly, time.
Those who can sew and have the time, create the end results that are given to those in need.
Those who can shop
find the best deals for the materials needed to make and distribute the Wings of Love. Items like fabric, thread, pattern paper, markers, envelops, postage, boxes and anything else that is necessary for the Wings of Love to make their way to the special recipients.
For those who can't sew, don't have the time but who really want to help can do so by giving a tax-deductible cash donation to the cause. We will take care to make sure your donation reaches as many people as possible through the Wings of Love program sponsored by the International Association of Touchers.
Of course, if you know of another way that you can be of service, we want to know about that too. Feel free to discuss our project with your friends, family, co-workers, business associates, professional organizations. You can contact us through our Wing Master

The Healing Angel
As inspired by Thomas - Summer 2004
Healing angel from above
Wrap me in your wings of love.
Softly whisper in my ear
Words of healing to calm my fears.
Touch me with your healing breath
And in your arms I will find rest.
