Community Involvement
Seven years ago, Monica was inspired by the single socks she was saving in vain waiting for the match to appear in the laundry. She suddenly realized that socks do not have to match to keep your feet warm. Since that time, through the generosity of friends and colleagues, Monica has collected thousands of these otherwise useless “homeless socks” and ensured that they end up on feet and not in the landfill. For information on how to donate call Monica today.
