2013 GoogleServe

Here's a nice article from the Newport Beach Independent about our 2013 GoogleServe efforts.
‘GoogleServe’ Week Benefits Local Charity

A local non-profit, Knots of Love, received 101 caps from a group of Google employees recently as part of their global week of service, “GoogleServe.”
...
“We chose Knots of Love because knitting/crocheting hats is a way that we can use our skills to give a bit of comfort and warmth to people undergoing chemotherapy,” said senior software engineer Liz Looney, who led the crafty club of Googlers that made the donation.
...
The contribution helped set a personal record for Knots of Love of most caps donated and shipped out in one day: A total of 1,050.
GoogleServe 2014 is coming up soon, and we aim to break last year's 101-hat record!
