Hats off For Cancer
An organization that sponsors hat drives and gives the hats away to kids. It appears that it gives these hats to other organizations-not individuals. This may be a resource for people who want to do "something" as an advocacy issue. Before doing a hat drive contact HOC. The founder is also developing a book of stories, poems, and drawing of cancer kids she has met in person or via the web.
