Sock Drive Support with No Generation Gap

People who want to give socks come from every age group and are digging deeper than ever to show their compassion and love to the homeless and mentally ill. With this powerful team work we hope to move mountains and break previous records for 2015/16. Our motive is to warm feet and warm hearts.

10+ year old children have spent their allowance to buy socks for this charity. It is something they understand when they see the homeless everytime they go shopping with their Mom. What an important life lesson they learn when they can give a pair of socks and know it will make a difference to a suffering person.
College students are collecting socks for the Sock Granny to give to a homeless resource center.
High School students are joining forces to support the Sock Granny Sock Drive 2015. They are using the power of Facebook to promote their own Sock Drive and then their Organizer, Serene, will deliver them to me, The Sock Granny.
Flight Attendants are collecting socks from their global friends.
Family and friends are busy cleaning out their "sock dresser draws" of used socks. The socks don't have to be matching. They do need to be clean and NO holes." Each sock is precious to the Sock Granny and to the men and women who recieve them.
