Mary Constance, executive director of Camp Allen Inc, invited Heather to speak to her counselors. After giving a brief presentation, many of international counselors took hats to bring back to their community. Because of the positive response, H.A.T.S. is already preparing for a donation next year.
Since its inception in 2004, H.A.T.S has been providing fleece hats for underprivileged or uncared for youth nationally and internationally. The organization particularly values its youth volunteers and aims to inspire and facilitate acts of service in America’s young adults while encouraged all volunteers to build personal relationships despite difference. Our hope is that the nature of this service-learning project will inspire young adults to recognize their talents and use them positively.
