Anyway.... Back to what I am really posting about
Kaps for Kidz
I don't know if you read Mckmama's blog or not. But a few weeks ago she posted about making and donating hats to cancer patients either via sending them to her or to your local hospital. Well I decided to take on this project. I am in nursing school at a fairly big school and started the Kaps for Kidz campaign to benefit Arkansas Children's Hospital. And since I have this blog I decided to branch out a bit more.
So here is the deal...
I am collecting all kind of hats, scarfs (for heads), beanies, doo-rags, or just anything you can think that would keeps these children's heads warm. They could use hats from toddler size all the way to teen/adult size. I know a lot of people around here knit hats for ACH but a lot of times those hats just do not fit the bigger kids. And the ones that do fit go really fast. I know that ball caps would go over very well, especially with the older kids. Anyway, I am putting a picture of the flyer I made for school up to give you a better idea. I have no problem collecting the hats from you and making one large donation. In fact I would love to be able to give them an abundant amount of hats!!! So if you have any questions regarding this you can e-mail me at the e-mail on the flyer or at nursemom0510(at)gmail(dot)com.

Oh and one last thing...If you decide to donate the hats must be new or made from new material due to the suppressed immune system of these children.
