BlueSkyScrubs is the brainchild of Shelby Marquardt, a medical resident. Tired of scrub hats that did not cover her long hair properly, she went home and sewed something more fashionable than the “bubble cap.” Blue Sky Scrubs was born.
Today, the company offers a line of fashionable, understated medical and surgical scrubs in flattering cuts, such as low rise scrub pants. Far from revealing, the well-placed darts and seams simply eliminate baggy, excess material.
While the company does its duty to keep the medical and veterinary industry well-turned-out, Blue Sky also gives back to cancer patients. Through Project Blue Sky, a free hat is given to a patient with every order. According to the project, “Our Blue Sky scrub hats offer a way to cover hair loss with a cheerful and sophisticated look. Our hats are fun and they make people feel good. When patients receive our beautiful package, it makes them smile.”
Losing one’s hair during cancer treatment can be extremely traumatic, especially when it happens raipdly. While sometimes health insurance helps provide wigs, Blue Sky’s generous offer alleviates the burden on insurers and also helps patients with limited options. Next time you are ordering vet tech scrubs, hospital uniforms or perhaps nursing uniforms from BlueSky Scrubs, you can feel confident that you are also “giving back.”
Don’t let the model fool you, they also offer men’s scrubs, too: http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Men/

Entrants paid £2 to enter a duck, and the individual who picked the lucky duck who crossed the finish line first won a cruise. Certainly, much of the raise is sheer chance, but it sounds like a lot more fun than purchasing a ticket and comparing your numbers against those that the announcer called.
