The mission of Project Linus is to provide the feeling of security, comfort and love to any child who is ill, has had surgery, has been neglected or abused in any way, or is experiencing some traumatic situation in their life. We do this by giving the child a soft, comfortable blanket, quilt or afghan to hug to themselves for comfort. We want each child to know we care and want to give them a hug when they need it most. These blankets, quilts or afghans are all made by generous, caring and talented volunteers who donate them to their local chapters which enables us to carry out that mission. Local volunteers that make blankets, quilts or afghans are Elise Jahde, Helen Frey, Marty Schantell, and the late Ida Schantell. If anyone is interested in helping with Project Linus blankets, please call Elsie Jahde at 402-385-2156. |
