Hannah's Holiday Sock Drive

On a very cold Thanksgiving Day in 2004, a young lady Hannah Turner was helping her mother serve meals at a homeless shelter. Hannah saw something that truly bothered her. It was a man with ripped shoes and no socks. Pulling off her tiny pink socks she offered them to the man. The next day, she and her mother donated 100 pairs of brand-new socks to the shelter and Hannah's Socks was born.

Hannah's Socks, is a nonprofit organization with the philosophy that "no man, woman, or child should go without something basic as a pair of socks." Hannah's Socks had already collected and donated 100,000 pairs of socks to neighbors in need. In this season we can remember that a small gesture, like Hannah's, can make a huge difference. Why not support such efforts as Hannah's Socks or think of other needs in your community. It will make a difference in someones life and better yet enrich your families life.
