We received the following thank you note at HQ. I don't know which chapter provided the blanket, but again it's a thank you to all:
My wife and I are in the process of adopting a six-year-old boy who has spent most of his young life in the foster system. Today, we began to go through his things for the first time. Most of his clothes didn't fit, his toys were second hand and dirty... a sad testament to life in the foster system. However, at the bottom of one of our son's cardboard boxes of items we found a blanket that was worn and obviously well-loved. Inscribed on the corner of this blanket was a Project Linus tag. Our son made it very clear that this blanket is a prized possession. In a dark world that is full of sadness and pain, your organization gave our son comfort. Words cannot express our gratitude. Thank you.Mary Balagna
