2010
OK it's been a year since I posted. Time to change that!
NEWS:
1. As of 1-1-10 NWPA Project Linus has been involved with the Disney Give A Day Get A Day program. We have received close to 1,000 blankets so far.
Our opportunity on the disneyparks.com site is:
Make a Blanket for a sick or needy child
We don't know how long Disney will be doing this, they are giving away 1,000,000 one day passes for doing a volunteer service.
Ours is: Make a handmade blanket (crocheted, knitted, quilted or no-sew fleece) to recieve one pass/voucher from Disney. You must be 6 years old or older to participate. All rules are on the disneyparks.com site.
2. We did a one time event on the Disney site for the single layer fleece blankets for Haiti.
We collected 50 blankets for this event and mailed them to KS to be sent to Haiti along with blankets from other chapters.
PHOTOS:
I am posting photos of families, groups, friends, clubs, schools, etc., who have provided them for this Disney Event. I will not be posting names.
We are very thankful to everyone who participated .
THANK YOU NOTE:
As I receive general thank you notes from people I will post them on the thank you note link on the top right hand side of this page.
Thank you notes addressed to NWPA Project Linus with a blanketeers name will be forwarded to that blanket maker if I have the address to do so.
