Project Linus

Senior Centers & Social · Minnesota · Free

Volunteer program that makes blankets for children — popular among senior crafters. Relevant for veterans, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ seniors looking for affinity-based community groups. Senior centers welcome drop-ins for tours, meals, and classes; most ask only a one-time membership form ($0-25/year). Social isolation has the health impact of smoking 15 cigarettes a day — these aren't optional add-ons, they're medicine. All services free of charge to qualifying seniors and family caregivers.
