Provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children and teens who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need. &nbsp;Chapter coordinators accept New, Handmade, Washable blankets and afghans for giving to children ages 0-18 years. &nbsp;Project Linus blankets are not donated to adults. &nbsp;As a national policy we accept all sizes and styles, although some chapters may have more narrow requirements based on the needs of the facilities to which they donate. &nbsp;Project Linus blankets must be of excellent quality and free from contaminants. &nbsp;Special care should be taken to ensure that blankets are free of smoky smells or any chemicals which could cause problems for a child. &nbsp;Ensure that blankets are free of pet or animal hair. &nbsp;Hospitals will not accept these blankets, and they will most likely be discarded. &nbsp;Recent studies show that laundering these blankets does not remove contamination, and in some cases can even make it worse. &nbsp;Always check blankets carefully for pins, and remove any embellishments such as buttons that could be swallowed.

Project Linus is a national non-profit organization with a two-fold mission:

First, to provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new, handmade blankets, lovingly created by volunteer "blanketeers."

Second, to provide a rewarding and fun service opportunity for interested individuals and groups in local communities, for the benefit of children.

Project Linus - Tomball Drop off Location

Need donations of new, handmade, washable blankets lovingly created by volunteers. Blankets are distributed to children and teens in hospitals, shelters, and social service agencies.
