Donated Socks Warm Cold Feet of the Homeless


Thank you Tara B for starting off our year with this great sock donation.  When you live out in the elements, or get nights at a shelter; having clean dry socks is HUGE!!  We've all had cold wet feet and it's miserable.  Especially when getting relief from that situation is so difficult.

Tara B has set up a recurring order of socks from Amazon.  When she first told me about this, I thought........BRILLANT!!  She doesn't have to take the time to shop, or package things up and pay shipping.  Amazon delivers directly to me.

We donated 107 pairs of socks in 2020, but had a couple of very lean years so our average for the last 4 years is only 79.  Though I have listed that as our goal, I feel confidant we can meet and exceed that.  So, thank you Tara for getting us started with these 6 pairs and 73 to go.

**The counts on our progress bars are current. All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
