Warmth for Warriors, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit
corporation, was formed to show appreciation for the sacrifices made by our soldiers and their families. To honor and
support them, we are providing active duty and retired veterans with handmade, warm, wool hats and other comfort items.
Join Our HATS
FOR TROOPS Project and Make a Difference!
As an
all volunteer organization, we are always looking for more help. We are knitting and crocheting homemade hats to
comfort our soldiers as they serve for us in Iraq and Afghanistan. Although some hats go to active duty soldiers, most hats
are sent to medical units where the sick and wounded are prepared to leave for hospitals in Germany or back home in the United
States. A warm, wool hat, made with love, provides both physical comfort and a "Hug of Thanks".
