Our latest tally

1 warmup suit
4 pairs of socks
2 sports bras
2 scarves
1 hat

These 31 items bring the total number of items collected this year to 53.

Who wants your old socks?

The truth is that there are many needy people in the Los Angeles Area and elsewhere that would be happy to receive a pair of your lightly used, clean socks. According to www.onesmallsteponline.org most clothing banks receive plenty of clothing and accessory items but they receive very few socks. When needy people come looking specifcally for socks they are forced to leave empty handed due to the general public’s misconception that “no body wants your old socks”.

So if you’re considering donating to Sweaters for Solstice this year, please consider substituting or adding a few pairs of Socks for Solstice.

Regards,

Rev. Connie
