Review for Project Hawai'i, Inc., Kea'au, HI, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

Project Linus, Hilo chapter, found the Christmas Wish program to be a great recipient for the handmade blankets donated by Big Island blanketeers. We gave them about 50 blankets for use by their summer camp kids, and Ms. Patrick was great about showing us how the blankets were used and appreciated. Chrismas Wish really helped Project Linus meet our goal of providing "security through blankets" to a target group that really needed and appreciated them. We will be donating blankets to Christmas Wish again in the future.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

...the way they got our donations into the hands of recipients who really needed them.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Knowing the blankets went to appropriate recipients.

Ways to make it better...

I'd actually met the organizer! We only communicated through email, but it worked out just fine. Someday, though, I'd like to put a face to the name!

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

Getting attention during these bad economic times, when so many other groups are competing for resources.
