Links
Here at Hats With Heart we believe in participating in and helping to build up the supportive network within the cancer community. We found the following links to be valuable for a variety of reasons. Though some are websites are state specific, their valuable information is universal.

The Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) brings together the best of three internationally renowned cancer-care institutions: Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, UW Medicine, and Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center.

Cancer Services
We know all cancer survivors can benefit from learning from individuals who share their experience, receiving answers to their questions, addressing their fears, and regaining a sense of control. Throughout the community we share information and prevention, early detection, and treatment of cancer because when cancers are detected earlier more options are available to pursue a better prognosis. The ongoing potential for positively impacting the communities we serve is endless, and we optimistically approach the challenge to meet all needs of cancer survivors and their families.

Cancer Project
The Cancer Project has two main goals: They aim to make cancer prevention a top priority. Just as important, they want to improve survival after cancer has been diagnosed by providing comprehensive information about the role of dietary factors in keeping people healthy.

Locks of Love
Locks of Love is a non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children across the U.S. under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss. If you would like to donate your cut hair (10" or more) contact them for a mail-in kit. A great idea for people with long hair, who are going to get theirs cut anyway.
