This is what our efforts look like:
When I spoke with the woman at New York Cares, she was really impressed. When I told her I had 133 hats (that was my count at the time) she got really excited. She said she thought I might have 5 or 6, maybe 10 at the most. It feels really good to know that I have done something to make someone’s day a little better.
If you still have hats for me, don’t worry. I am going to do this again next year. So hold onto those hats. I think since I achieved my goal of 100 from July to Thanksgiving and I will be starting in January my goal will be 200. Now I just need to figure out a better way to store them. Have I mentioned I live in a studio?

Great job, Claudine! We have room for the hats here, but geography kind of makes that plan less feasible...
I'm so proud of you Claudine. Great job!!! You are a fantastic organizer and a very caring soul!
Claudine, I just saw this post for the first time. I'd like to help you towards next year's goal. What sizes and/or yarns can you use? (I have lots of wool, but know some charities only want washable stuff).
I will send them all at once, but will keep you posted as to how many I have ready.

Guess I'd better leave my address if I want a reply :)
