National Honor Society recently held “Hat Day” at the Neoga Junior Senior High School. On October 14th, junior high and high school students could pay one dollar to wear a school-appropriate hat. The money raised went to the “Heavenly Hat” Foundation, who donates hats for people who have lost their hair to diseases. The official website for the foundation states, “Since its beginnings in 2001, Heavenly Hats has distributed more than 1,000,000 brand-new hats to hundreds of hospitals and clinics around the United States.” National Honor Society member Becca Warfel quoted, “It was a good way to support people who have cancer, and simultaneously allow students to express their individuality.”
