Connie Adelman of Lake Santee presented the program to Greensburg Rotarians on Monday. The program consisted of a service project completed by local Rotary members in attendance. Project Linus provides blankets to children in less fortunate and stressful situations or in Foster Care. Connie started the effort during the 2021 Covid Pandemic and the national effort has grown locally with many volunteers making blankets for those children in need. The local chapter covers Decatur, Ripley and Franklin Counties, although blankets are delivered everywhere including Muncie, IN, areas in Southeast Indiana and Northern Kentucky. In 2021, 250 blankets were distributed and so far in 2022, the local Linus Project has surpassed the 250 blankets distributed with a need for many more.
