For the last seven years, Indie88 and Socks4Souls Canada teamed up during the holiday season and collected thousands of socks from the good people of the GTA. This year, we want to do it again! Help us collect 100,000 pairs of socks for Toronto’s unhoused individuals. Click here to watch our Socks for The Streets Video.
Tune in this Friday, December 6th as The Morning Show will broadcasting outside from 7am until they raise 40,000 pairs of socks! Donations can be made online at Indie88.com or in person outside the Indie88 studio at 20 Hanna Ave!
Join Indie88 with Socks4Souls Canada on Friday, December 13th and Saturday, December 14th at Cadillac Fairview Mall as we host our annual Socks for the Streets event. We’ll be broadcasting live all-day collecting your new unused sock and monetary donations. We’ll be located by Guest Services on the second level near entrance 4.
Socks 4 Souls Canada is a primarily volunteer based organization that helps provide warmth, comfort and mobility by distributing new socks for Toronto’s unhoused population. On any given night, there are 10,000+ people experiencing homelessness in the GTA. Nearly 20% of their medical ailments are related to poor foot care, which significantly impedes their ability to access food, shelter, and other social resources. Socks 4 Souls Canada procures both sock and monetary donations from school and workplace sock drive, corporations, businesses, and private citizens, and distributes them to agencies who work directly with those who are experiencing homelessness across southwestern Ontario.
