    Caps For Kids was founded in 1993 by Dr. Stephen Heinrich, a pediatric orthopedic surgeon at Children's Hospital in New Orleans, Louisiana and a clinical professor at the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center.Dr. Heinrich was treating a young man with cancer, who was also an avid Auburn University fan.He gave Lee a hat autographed by Auburn University football coach Terry Bowden and his father, Florida State University football coach, Bobby Bowden.When Dr. Heinrich realized how happy a simple hat could make someone suffering from a life-threatening disease, he organized Caps For Kids to improve the spirits of young cancer patients nationwide.

    Dr. Heinrich began to garner autographed hats and scarves from notable personalities to be given to the children with cancer that he cared for.Publicity opened new avenues for acquiring hats and soliciting signatures.Dr. Heinrich was soon able to expand the program so that all children receiving chemotherapy for cancer at Childrens Hospital in New Orleans could participate.

    Today, Caps For Kids exists at more than 90 hospitals in the United States including 4 chapters in Canada.The organization is currently run by one full time employee, one part time staff member and a host of volunteers, all of whom have other full-time jobs.The Board of Directors and an advisory group help to drive the organizations growth.
