Project Linus
On July 10, women of Rhinelander and the surrounding areas gathered at 780 Iverson Street as members of the Relief Society of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to make blankets for Project Linus, a non-profit organization that provides homemade blankets to children in need. Blankets are collected locally and distributed to children in hospitals, shelters, social service agencies or anywhere that a child might be in need of a big hug. Fabric donations were made by individual members of the Relief Society and in an evening, the women were able to produce 16 blankets. The Relief Society is a worldwide organization that is active wherever the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has a presence. Pictured are Holly Somrak and Diana Sturzl, volunteer counselors in the Rhinelander Relief Society, along with the 16 blankets.
