One Hat One Heart

one hat one heart
Seeds of Light volunteer, Jennifer Traeger, was inspired to knit warm winter hats for the orphaned and vulnerable children who are part of our community of schools in Acornhoek, South Africa—an area where one in three people is HIV+ and where poverty is extreme. “I was inspired by a beautiful Native American prayer, which says in part, ‘all children are our children…every child is our precious child,’” explains Jennifer. When other knitters from around the world learned about her efforts, the project snowballed, and 176 hats—hand-knitted with love—were delivered to orphans in South Africa. Creating a bridge of love and caring between worlds, Seeds of Light’s new and on-going program, “One Hat One Heart”, was born.
