Sock It to Homelessness Open House

Sock It to Homlessness 2024

WHO WE ARE

Operation Nightwatch (Nightwatch) reduces the impact of poverty and homelessness in keeping with Jesus’ teaching to love our neighbors. Nightwatch provides food, shelter, housing and hope to Seattle’s most vulnerable population. Join us for an evening of sharing, dining, coffee and conversation with our board, community, staff and friends

THE EVENT

Sock It to Homelessness is an in-person event on November 24th, 2024. Socks are critical to the comfort and well-being of homeless people. Imagine what it must be like to have the same pair of nasty, wet socks on your feet, 24-hours a day. Not good. Socks won’t solve our community’s homeless crisis. But socks can keep homeless people hopeful, knowing there are neighbors like you, who care.
