Chemo Hats

Hats for Chemotherapy Patients

I'm looking into the feasibility of developing a social enterprise to provide a positive, fun experience - or at least some hats - for women facing hair loss through cancer treatment. Your feedback will help me to see which solution would meet the most needs. Thanks for your support.
