Donna delivered the most beautiful crocheted blankets, and the same day a delivery from Kathleen arrived with the most gorgeous quilts! We are so thankful for these generous donations, and appreciate the hours spent creating them, while thinking of the children they will comfort. 💗 Project Linus Canada

It’s National Volunteer Week, and we wanted to give a shout out to all of our “Blanketeers” who are dedicated, and incredibly talented! We could not serve our community without you! Project Linus Airdrie’s mission is two fold, the first to provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children ages newborn to teen, who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need of a hug, through the gifts of new, handmade blankets, lovingly crafted by our volunteer "Blanketeers". Second, to provide a rewarding and fun service opportunity for interested individuals and groups in local communities, for the benefit of children. If you are looking for a fun way to meet people, and share your talents in bringing comfort to children, please reach out us at [email protected]. Thank you to all of our volunteers! 💗

So many beautiful and heart warming blankets were received at our February 2nd meeting. Our amazing blanketeers have brought in 146 blankets since we met in December! We had such a fun meeting, with plenty of camaraderie, idea sharing and new friendships made. The children who receive these blankets will be sure to feel the warmth and love placed in every stitch by our generous volunteers. 💗 Project Linus Canada
