Project Linus is a 100% volunteer non-profit organization with a two-fold mission.  First, it is our mission 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 and afghans, lovingly created by volunteer "blanketeers".  Second, it is our mission to provide a rewarding and fun service opportunity for interested individuals and groups in our local community, for the benefit of children.

Anyone, any age, can help these children.  It's within your power to make a difference.

Q:  How can I help?

A:  Become a "Blanketeer!" Make a blanket and donate it to your local chapter of Project Linus.  It will then be given to a deserving child, permanently.

Q: What type of blankets does Project Linus accept?

A:  We welcome all types of blankets. . . crocheted, knitted, quilted, fleece . . . you don't have to be an expert!  Blankets must be NEW, HANDMADE and WASHABLE.

Q:  What about size?

A:  Blankets of all sizes, but contact the local chapter for specific size needs.

Q:  How do I find my local Chapter?

A:  For southern Arkansas area call (870) 864-7083 or visit the Project Linus website at www.projectlinus.org
