Project Linus is comprised of hundreds of local chapters and thousands of volunteers across the United States. Each volunteer and local chapter all work together to help achieve their mission which is 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.” Together they have distributed over three million blankets to children in need since their inception in 1995. Please visit the Project Linus Booth at the RMQF in Booth 43 in the McKee Building. Discover how you can volunteer and help in the mission. They will also be hosting a book signing for “Working for Peanuts, The Project Linus Story” by Karen Loucks Rinedollar (available at Amazon).
