The Problem

Collect new socks for Homeless Shelters

Plan of Action

Comfort Socks is a 501(c)3 public charity that collects new socks from individuals, schools, companies, and apparel manufacturers. We then distribute the socks to non-profit organizations that serve homeless people and families. Our mission is simple - Comfort- It just feels good to put on a new pair of socks, and we believe this warm and comfortable feeling can help to ease the pain of someone who feels lost or forgotten by this world. Socks are an important part of health and a constant need for homeless people, who are mostly on their feet, and do not change socks on a daily basis - Comfort Socks is working hard to make socks always available to those in need - In addition to supporting our local shelters - Comfort Socks stretches its service to homeless shelters coast to coast, across the United States. Comfort Socks also recognizes that sock drives encourage kindness and purpose for young and old alike, so that ultimately, the comfort these socks bring can be enjoyed soulfully by the provider and recipient.
