According to Kid President, every night in the United States an estimated 600,000 people live on the streets. This October, SoulPancake and Kid President would like millions of people to prove that even the smallest acts of love, like donating a pair of socks, can make a big difference in the lives of our neighbors who are homeless. This year we will also be donating socks to our local families and students in need and we will be working with Lydia Sanders at BGPS to help in those efforts.
We will be accepting pairs and packages of NEW socks in all sizes, types and colors. Donation boxes will be placed throughout the school by Tuesday, October 1st. A large box will be located in the front office area as well. Donations will be accepted throughout the entire month of October. Please encourage students/parents to bring NEW pairs or packages of socks to school and place the socks into one of the collection boxes that will be labeled for SOCKTOBER! Also, NEW blankets would gladly be accepted and can be put into the donation boxes as well.
Please help spread the word to families you know and encourage them to join in our efforts. To help you get motivated to collect socks, here is a message from Kid President and Grover...
