We founded Ellieβs Hats to brighten the day of children with cancer. Since Ellieβs Hats began in Feb 2014,Β We have donated over $400,000 directly to families, in the form of checks, and gift cards. We have also sent 1,000’s of hats to children and hospitals.
Hear from Ellie, her mom and Jay, who were on WJLA’s Good Morning Washington Show on February 17th 2020.
In 2013, Ellie was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. By the time she entered kindergarten, she had lost most of her hair. We donated fun hats to Ellie. Now, weβve expanded far beyond hats. Whether itβs granting a wish or supporting families in need, each day we work to make a child with cancer day a little brighter.
We send boxes of hats to hospitals and clinics for the children being treated for cancer.
βFinancial Assistance Programβ
This Program was started in Jan 2019 and is coordinated with the Pediatric Specialists of Virginia Clinic, in Falls Church VA. **In March of 2022 we expanded the “Financial Assistance Programβ to WVU Medicine Children’s Hospital in Morgantown WV. Each month the social workers select five families who are struggling financially. We give each one of those families a $1,000 check. We have now donated $200,000 through this program.
As of January 30, 2023 we have donated $318,150 through this program
