YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Hooked For A Cause's mission is to put a smile on children's faces through vibrant colorful hand made hats and blankets made by people that not only Love them,but pray for their speedy recovery and that they feel as special as we know they are! I have a passion for crochet and there is no other feeling than that of seeing the joy on a child's face when they see what new hat or blanket they have made just for them.
Its like seeing a Christmas tree light up for the first time. Pure happiness! Being in the hospital can be a scary and sometimes lonely place,even with amazing nurses and staff doing everything they can to make you comfortable.
Lets give them a security blanket created with loving hands and distribute them to sick children to provide love, a sense of security, warmth, and comfort.For any local or neighboring communities,you know how important Children's hospital is to our children,and many surrounding. It is the 10th busiest pediatric center in the US! It is the states ONLY level 1 pediatric trauma center,the only renal care center and the largest pediatric burn center in the Southeast and one of the largest pediatric centers in the nation!
The UAB Division Of Pediatric Hematology & Oncology at Children's Hospital is Alabama's single largest provider of specialized pediatric services for all forms of cancer,leukemia,brain and spinal tumors,hemophilia and other blood disorders like sickle cell diseases.
Children's treats 95% of the children in Alabama diagnosed with childhood cancers and blood disorders and offers the ONLY pediatric bone marrow transplant program in the state.
So while we hope that we never have to face the unthinkable.....
Know that Children's is more than equipped and more than happy to take care of our children should the need arise.
**The mission** to make/collect as many baby--child and young adult beanie/hats as possible.--make/collect as many throw blankets to take to the Children's hospital as possible.
