Thanks to Leona, one of our volunteers, these 90 hats were collected at the library for “Hatsgiving.” She inspired us by leading a program for ELIK—“How to Make a Hat on a Loom.”
These warm, soft hats were given to pediatric cancer patients through an organization you can learn more about at Hatsgiving.org which gives roughly 900 hats a year to Albany Med.
Thank you Leona, and thank you to all who purchased hats to donate, as well as all the knitters and crocheters out there.
