Emily Kubin has been making a difference in the world, one hat at a time. Creating winter hats, scarves, afghans & gloves for the homeless & working poor. In December 2011, Emily, who was just 17, realized she could help the homeless & working poor in her community of Morristown, NJ, by knitting winter hats for them. On December 27, 2011, Emily’s Hats For Hope Initiative (EHFHI) was born. In total, Emily has made, collected and donated over 15,000 winter hats! This number does not include the hats donated by her spinoffs nor the hundreds of scarves, afghans, etc that she has donated. Members of Emily’s Facebook group have created approximately 40 independent spinoffs of Emily’s Hats For Hope Initiative in the US, Canada, Denmark, and Australia. Emily’s long-term goal is to have a spinoff in every state & in every country. Hundreds of people from Emily’s Facebook page have sent hats, scarves, afghans, & yarn to us as donations. Emily has received letters of recognition from NJ Assemblyman
