The Children

At Project Linus, a non-profit organization, we make and provide handmade blankets for local children in need.  Our blankets are lovingly made by adults, young adults and children from all walks of life.

Blankets are collected locally and distributed to children in hospitals, shelters, social service agencies, or anywhere that a child might be in need of a big hug.

The blankets are given to children through many organizations.  Some of the most recent organizations that have distributed our blankets to children in need are:

St. Joseph's Hospital South Pediatrics

Brandon Regional Hospital Pediatrics and NICU

AdventHealth Pediatrics

Camp Mariposa

Pregnancy Care Center

Guardian ad Litem

Foundation for Dreams

Children's Protective Services

TAPS (the military's Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors)

If you know of a local organization serving children in need that would like to receive blankets, please contact us.

Project Linus receives many letters and thank you notes every year from children.  Over and over they express how touched they are that a stranger would take the time to make a blanket for them.  Purchased blankets are nice, but handmade blankets are from the heart.
