Socks in the City Drive |
| Date: Oct 23, 2017 at 8:00pm to Nov 6, 2017 at 10:00pm | |
The holiday season is approaching which means it's time to start giving! With the festive activities, we all tend to forget that there are those who don't have a home and are currently living in the cold weather.
This term, we are partnering up with St. Anthony's to give back to those in need. "For those on the street, feet matter. Here’s something you can do to show you care. Donate new socks to St. Anthony’s.
Access to shoes and socks is often limited for homeless men and women living in shelters and on the street. Blisters and infections are common conditions that can lead to more severe health issues. Wet feet, ill-fitting shoes, constant standing and diseases like diabetes take their toll. The best way to prevent such conditions is to keep feet clean and dry—very difficult if you spend your days outside."
Not only will we be collecting socks, we will also host a CLOTHING drive. Please donate your gently used or new items to us!
1 BAG OF CLOTHING= 1 HOUR
8 PAIRS OF SOCKS= 1 HOUR
MAX 3 HOURS***
Please contact Service VPs Jose and Jenn in a group message if you have any questions about this event. | |
