\"Project.<\/p>\n

The Bodwell Center supports the Maine Chapter of Project Linus by donating fleece and yarn (knit or crochet) blankets.  In the last 3 years, 91르적 has donated over 200 blankets!<\/p>\n

During the spring semester, we try to hold Make a Blanket Day project and can provide fleece and yarn to make blankets.  It all depends on available funding!  Watch for information about this event usually during Winter Carnival in February.<\/p>\n

We have instructions, scissors, and some supplies to assist in making blankets throughout the year.  If you have or can get fleece or yarn, we can help you get blankets made.<\/p>\n

Have everything?  Just drop off the completed blankets at the Bodwell Center, and we will get them to Project Linus.<\/p>\n
