Charity du jour
File this under coziest charity. Through Project Linus you can give a new, handmade and washable blanket as a gift to seriously ill and traumatized children. In 2006 the organization donated more than 1.9 million blankets to needy kids. Doesn't that make you want to snuggle? Project Lunis is 100% volunteer and a non-profit so your donation is tax deductible. Find a chapter near you. Project Linus also accepts homemade blankets and some chapters may even accept scraps (for all the quilters out there). One of the things I like best about this charity is that because it is all volunteer 98-cents of every dollar donated goes directly to services. Amazing!

Hi Julia,
I think that highlighting a charity every day like you're doing is a wonderful idea. I hope many people choose to participate and donate. I just wanted to point out though that if you're going to refer to something as daily in French, the correct format is DU jour, not DE jour. Just my two cents.
Thanks for bringing us the goodies!
