Jeremy Wernick of Albany, NY was only 8 years old when he started Hatsgiving along with his dad Jeff. He wanted to collect hats for kids going through cancer treatment so their heads were warm during the winter months. Since then (2012), Hatgiving has collected over 16,000 hats!
This year, we teamed up with Hatsgiving to collect for Children's Wisconsin, and our goal was 106 hats (get it? FM106?). I'm SO excited to tell you that we beat our goal - all thanks to you! We collected over 800 hats this year, and we can't wait to do it again next year already!
I was guest co-hosting on Real Milwaukee on FOX6 last week - and they were so kind to let me talk about it and thank those who were involved.
Again - thank you to Ridder, Scott, & Shannen, Hannah, Billy Greenwood, JR, Kerry Wolfe, our Promotions and Sales departments, and everyone who donated from all over Milwaukee (including E.H. Wolf and Stein's!).
