Project Linus is a 100% volunteer nonprofit national organization with a mission to provide a sense of security, warmth, and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new, handmade blankets.

Thank you Project Linus for helping us help our clients!

The mission of Project Linus is two fold.  First, it is to provide love, a sense of security, warmth, and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new, handmade blankets, lovingly created by volunteer “Blanketeers.”  Second, is to provide a rewarding and fun service opportunity for interested individuals and groups in local communities, for the benefit of children. 

Thank you to everyone at Project Linus who worked on blankets for our clients here at the Social Service Center!
