Frequently Asked Questions

Why are the caps priced at almost a million dollars?

We price the hats at $999,999 because the love that is put into creating these hats is almost priceless! They are lovingly made only for patients to receive for free with a coupon given at their treatment centers, not for the general public.

How many Happy Caps can I order?

While we are testing our new method of delivery (online ordering), and are not sure of resulting volume, we will begin with a limit of 1 hat per patient. If you accidently order more than one we will choose one for you.

Can I get a Happy Cap for a relative/friend who is at another cancer center?

Send us an email with their particulars (name, address, treatment center) and we will contact you .

Can I order a certain hat I like in a different color or size?

No. Each hat that is lovingly made by our volunteers is unique in color and design.

What is a sleep cap?

A sleep cap is made with fine yarn, with no embellishments, to maximize comfort when sleeping. It is usually lighter than general Happy Caps, but can certainly be worn outside too.

I saw a hat I like earlier, but now I can't find. Is there a way to describe it and get it made?

This hat was probably chosen by someone else. All of our hats are unique so we usually do not have another of that same hat.

Is there a way to save favorites and then pick the one I like best?

Yes....put them in your cart and then when you are ready, remove all but the one you would like to order.

I would like to contribute to Happy Caps. Is my donation tax deductible?

Yes it is. Our tax ID is 81-1224171 ... and Thank you so much!!!

I received my Happy Cap, but it isn't right for me. Will you pay the postage for it to be returned?

We are a non-profit and want to use every bit of our donations towards the creation/delivery of hats to patients. However, if you send it back to us, we will give you a code to order another hat.

How do I know the size?

If the hat is on a female Styrofoam head , it is small to medium. If it completely covers the ears, is at the brow line, and down to the neck in back, it is a medium. If it is on a male head and it completely covers the ears, is at the brow line, and down the neck in back, it is a large male size. If it is just around the hairline or only to mid forehead on a male it is a small, male or a female large.

I'm not a cancer patient, but love your hats, can I buy one?

Thank you for being a fan of our hats! While we appreciate the compliment, we have a limited number of hats, and want to see them fulfill the vision of our organization - - to give a little bit of happiness and comfort for those who are going through the struggles of cancer.

How can I let the volunteers know how much I appreciate my beautiful Happy Cap?

Please send us your picture (and a message) wearing your Happy Cap for posting on our Facebook page! Your smile will keep us inspired and motivated to make even more beautiful Happy Caps! Send through Facebook messenger to Happy Caps or text to 770-653-9448. THANK YOU!!!!
