Every time a new child walks through our door we give them a welcome basket filled with all of their basic hygiene and comfort needs. One item we include in every single basket is a warm, soft blanket. THANK YOU to The Linus Connection for donating so many blankets to our kids! The Linus Connection actually makes these security blankets themselves, which makes our kids feel SO COVERED in love!
A Note from Stacy…
“THANK YOU Linus Connection! When I was in fostercare, a handmade quilt was donated to me by an organization like this. It meant so much to me. I got it when I was 15, right before I was emancipated and moved into my own apartment. Being on my own at that age was scary, but when I wrapped myself up in that big beautiful quilt, I felt safe and warm. I STILL HAVE IT. Thank you to those at Linus Connection for your hard work, thank you for caring. ❤️”

June 18, 2018. Watching the news about children separating from their parents at the border breaks my heart! Do you have an effort in Austin or Round Rock to collect blankets for the children in Tornello (near El Paso). I live in Idaho but feel a great need to provide comfort for these children who basically have nothing and need a warm hug of comfort a blanket can offer.
