Project Linus – Orange County
Address:
Orange County, California, United States
Description:
Project Linus provides handmade blankets to children 0-18 in the United States who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need. All blanket donations remain in the Orange County area to be distributed to various agencies/programs locally.
It is wonderful that you are mentoring these young people to help give back to the community. Many people like to make no-sew fleece blankets. All ages can make them. There are videos on YouTube demonstrating different techniques. The common type is the cut-and-tie knots on ends. Use only single-layer fleece because double-layer fleece is too hot. Use single knots on the fringe because double knots can be a choking hazard. We usually buy 1 1/2 yards of fleece per blanket.
Blankets are dropped off at the Joann stores in Orange County. If you want to drop them off at a facility, we could arrange it. I am open to your ideas.
Let me know if you have any questions or ideas. Thank you for contacting Project Linus.
