300 Wide Brim hat Project

P1110528.jpg

We gave away 300 reversible wide brim hats to children & teachers in need, living in high altitude Peruvian communities.  We made two different hat sizes & distributed them to 8 schools and several villages. The hats were made at a local shop and to our specifications (extra heavy material, reinforced stitching, color, etc).     

The total project cost was $1,685 or $5.62 per person.  The average family income for these villagers is about $6 per day.
