Joining Forces with American Heart Association - Little Hats, Big Hearts (TM)
Posted almost 9 years ago by Amaryllis Matos-Martorelli
Get your yarn and crochet needles and let's start crocheting "Red" baby hats - donations will be accepted now and through January. If you are not able to crochet, donations of yarn will also be accepted - please email us at InfoCTNahn@gmail.com and someone from NAHN will make arrangements for pick up.
~Volunteers from around the country are joining the American Heart Association, in connection with The Children's Heart Foundation, to celebrate American Heart Month by knitting and crocheting red hats for babies born in February at participating hospitals. Little Hats, Big Hearts (TM), honors babies, moms, and heart healthy lives in a very special way. Supporters are knitting and crocheting red hats to be given out to thousands of babies during American Heart Month in order to empower moms to live heart healthy lives and to help their children do the same.
Together, we are working to raise awareness, provide resources and inspire moms to take their family's heart health to heart while also raising awareness about Congenital Heart Defects.
