The Project Linus Chapter of Wake County, NC was started in 1996 by Susie Holmes. Over 50,000 blankets have been delivered to many local groups and agencies that help seriously ill or traumatized children who need a HUG from a blanket including: Wake Med Hospitals, Rex Hospital, Duke Hospital NICU, Safe Space (for children of abused women receiving support), Hospice (for their Reflections program for grieving children and teens), Make a Wish Foundation, the children at Salvation Army, Children's Flight of Hope, and Wake County Social Services.

Many, many thanks to the children, parents and staff of St. Raphael's Early Education Program. They have made blankets for Project Linus for years and years. The fabric is blessed and the children are helped by parents and teachers to make adorable quilts for children in the hospital. Thank you!
