Make-A-Wish of Eastern North Carolina covers the 49 counties in eastern North Carolina, and has granted more than 2,700 wishes since 1986. Our Project Linus chapter supports Make-A-Wish of Eastern North Carolina by providing blankets for the children who are granted their wish.
"Make-A-Wish
had a banner year last year, granting a record 180 wishes for local Eastern
North Carolina children. Unfortunately, we still ended the year with 200+
kids in the system waiting for wishes, with additional requests coming in
daily! We are extremely grateful for the wonderful support Project Linus
has given – and many of our wish kids are wrapped up in warm and loving
blankets – for a number of those, it’s the first and only blanket of their own
that they’ve received!" according to Joyce Aschenbrenner, Volunteer and Events Manager.
