In Person: Socktober and Compassion Kits

Who this In Person Event is for:

Ages 4-12. Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome but may find the event to be less meaningful and fulfilling.

What you’ll be doing:

October is also known as Socktober! Did you know socks are the most in-demand item, but the least donated? As winter approaches, socks are in high demand at shelters and resource pantries, and caring kids can help! Join us as we partner with Clintonville-Beechwold Community Resources Center (CRC)! Children will gain empathy for our unhoused neighbors by participating in The Hunger Experiment, assembling compassion kits, and accomplishing various tasks within the pantry.

Before the event, kids are encouraged to bring new socks or conduct a donation drive for new socks. A donation drive flyer will be provided in your confirmation email.

Specific Instructions:

All supplies will be provided. Please bring any donations of new socks to the event.

Why you'll be asked to donate:

Every time we're able to design, coordinate, and offer an opportunity for kids to give back, it's with the help of supporters like you. Please consider making a generous gift to help us continue to empower kids to create a kinder community with their hearts, hands, and minds.

This service opportunity is made possible through the generous support of The Barbasol Foundation.
