Project Linus Of Collin And Grayson Counties

The mission of Project Linus is to provide security through blankets to children who are ill or traumatized.

Description:
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 local communities, for the benefit of children.

History:
The national organization of Project Linus was created in 1995. There are now more than 385 chapters nationwide, who have cumulatively donated more than 1.6 million blankets. The Collin/Grayson Counties Texas chapter of Project Linus was created in November 2004, and in that time has donated more than 3,500 blankets to children who are sick or in crisis.
