Residents of Coastal Manor Long Term Care Facility in Ludowici recently offered help to those less fortunate than them.

Coastal Manor activities coordinator Kylie Yancey said the residents wanted to do something to help homeless people in this area.

She said it was decided that they would make as many blankets as they could and donate a few others.

“Together they made three blankets and donated more than a dozen altogether,” Yancey said. “They had a blast working on this project and felt accomplished for helping their community.”
