Making a Difference, One Blanket at a Time 🧵💙 Six REC employees recently volunteered their time to support the Culpeper Chapter of Project Linus, an organization dedicated to providing handmade blankets to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or in need. Our volunteers helped prepare materials for an upcoming sewing day, assisting with cutting fabric, arranging patterns, and pinning quilt pieces together. Debbie Busby, Chapter Coordinator, shared her gratitude: "Many hands make light work. REC's volunteers were a huge help in getting materials prepped for our sewing day." The Culpeper Chapter of Project Linus serves communities in Culpeper, Warrenton, Haymarket, Orange, Louisa, Fredericksburg, and Spotsylvania. We’re proud to support their mission of bringing comfort to children in need. #ProjectLinus #RECVolunteers #WeAreREC #volunteer #community
