Scarlett Johansson has teamed up with Neff and Zappos to design some new beanies to raise money for the City of Hope.
“I helped create this Neff Beanie with the hope that every purchase might make a cancer patient feel a bit more comfortable during his/her treatments,” explained Scarlett, “and look cool and be cozy all the while. The beanies are eco friendly too, so they’re as nice to the earth as they are to the person wearing them,” says Johansson.
For every Scarlett beanie that is sold (they’re only available on Zappos), Neff will donate one beanie to a City of Hope cancer patient/survivor.
