Project Linus & Brownies

Our Brownie Troop 20910 decided on their Holiday Service Project. they wanted to make something tangible to help others. so we looked into different projects and found Project Linus. Project Linus is comprised of hundreds of local chapter and thousands of volunteers across the United States. Everyone works together to help achieve the Project Linus mission which 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 and afghans, lovingly created by volunteer "blanketeers". Since 1995, Project Linus has provided over 3 million blankets to children in need.
Our Brownies (2nd graders) made 8 Fringed Fleece Blankets with loving care 0 we were so proud of them and they really enjoyed the project and hope to find out just exactly who will be the recipients of these blankets!
