Project Ellie Walking in Another’s Shoes Sock Drive
Socks are the most needed but least donated item at homeless shelters.
A sock drive is a perfect project for a club to help organize into a schoolwide event!
Socks are easy to collect and to transport!
PROJECT ELLIE WILL HELP:
with organizing
with all promotional material
with funding in all capacities
The sock drive can also be carried out competitively between classes or advisories.
ADDITIONALLY:
Students who help organize the sock drive will have the opportunity to come to Boston and get first-hand experience on the streets distributing items to homeless folks. A Lunch and Learn program with Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Boston's only homeless shelter for teens, is included.
MORE OPTIONS:
Tour Pine Street Inn, New England's largest homeless services provider.
Participate in school-wide Walking in His Shoes essay contest.
