Service Club Project Linus 2013

By:  Erin J.

During the month of April the Olive Service Learning Club met several times to create no-sew blankets for the Project Linus Foundation.  The Project Linus Foundation is a group of volunteers that work with hospitals across the country to provide hand-made blankets to children who are in the hospital.  The Olive blankets will be received by the Lutheran General Hospital Children's Wing.

All 35 members of the Service Learning Club shopped and chose their own favorite fleece fabrics and worked together to create soft works of art meant to make sick children feel more comfortable! We all had a great time making them and helping each other do the best work we can do. It was wonderful seeing all the blankets together being sent off to the hospital.
