Dear Anonymous,
This morning at zero degrees these handmade felt hats, made by two students from Portland High School with a grant from Painting For A Purpose, were a big hit.
He not only traded in a wool watch cap for this fleece hat, he asked to distribute some in the community. The students made hats in different sizes from infant to adult, in all different colors.
'It gives me something good to do. I know where people hang out. Who need hats. Gives me a way to give back a little, make up for my past a little bit. How can we thank these kids for doing this? Tell them they have warmed my heart. Restored some faith. Helped put together what was a little broken in me.'
All of us. Searching for a bit of redemption. - with Tina Clark Edwards
