Please join us for Omaha Project Linus’ 6th Birthday Party!!!

Project Linus is a 100% volunteer organization with a mission to provide a sense of comfort to children who are seriously ill or traumatized through the gifts of new, handmade blankets or afghans, crafted by volunteer “blanketeers.”  All blankets donated to our local chapter of this nation-wide organization are given to seriously ill or traumatized children of the Greater Omaha and Council Bluffs area.  This is an excellent opportunity to contribute something special to our local children in need.

This is the 6th Birthday Party for our chapter.  Over the last 6 years we have donated over 24,000 blankets to local kids in need.  Come help us celebrate!

When?  October 24, 2009
Where?  Tangier Shiners Center (Just south of 84th and Center)
             Omaha NE

From 9 am – 1 pm  

What you need to bring?  New, handmade, washable blankets and afghans OR b ring your knitting, crocheting or your sewing machine and you can stay and make a blanket with us OR just bring yourself and a friend!  We will have a limited number of fleece pieces to make some no-sew blankets.

Also bring a snack to share if you like.

Thanks for all you do for the children!
