Thank you for collecting socks for the homeless!
What Kind of Socks Should I Donate?
All NEW socks are welcome! Adults, men, women, children, etc. I have a place for them all.
I suggest you buy socks for the target population that is closest to your heart.
For example:
-Homeless men living on the street = New, thick, thermal socks (black or white); or dressy too (think interviews or church); or athletic
-Homeless children's shelter = All kids socks work for this group because they usually attend school
-Homeless women = Women socks athletic or dressy
In other words, you can't go wrong! If your group has a particular shelter that you want to donate to ...aim toward that target population.

I hope this helps.
