This is awesome. Maybe I will do something. Not sure what, don't exactly have the fur or money, but would love to help!

Like to thank the "old relic" for having a half empty glass- sometimes it's the little things that light the 🔥

I'm looking forward to seeing your furs!

God bless all involved, i spent over a month last summer in a childrens hospital and soooooo much sadness there that ANYTHING that will bring a smile to a child's face even for a little while is a worthwhile cause.

Beaglador and I are looking at giving the like number of hats again
prior to the holiday season.
So the time is right for those of you who would like to donate, be
it fur or money to do it now.
PM Beaglador (about fur) or me (about money) for additional information, we could use your help.

well, the hits are coming in!!

I just read in the news that you are donating fur hats to the children's hospital making it sound like it is a great thing. I would never allow my child to wear an animal. You make me sick! Killing animals to make hats when you could have done something better for a child....you can be assured that I will be fighting this. I wouldn't want an animal to die for a hat. You justify the cruelty if fur farms and trapping for selfish reasons. Do the right thing and quit the abuse!!!!!

Live today as you will wish you have lived when you stand before the Lord!

I am tired and don't really want to ponder the topic anymore. But I'll sleep like a rock knowing I did what I could!

What did you do?

I clammed up bad when they started rolling camera- Johnny 2times. Gimme another shot I'll nail it!

What did you...

This is so cool!!!
Me question: did you come up with a name for this?
And is anyone doing the marketing/social media aspect of this?

My brain has been turning since I discovered this thread.
Ill ask my marketing professor on Monday.

If this is going to continue it needs a name.
Also, you should think about sending a panflet with every hat to explain the importance of fur, and why they got a dead animal on their head for lack of better words.
