About Knock Knock Give a Sock: Knock Knock Give a Sock works to humanize homelessness one sock a time by bringing together neighbors living in local homeless shelters with neighbors living in homes. The organization raises awareness about who the homeless are in addition to providing them with fresh socks; a much needed resource in many homeless shelters. They use a two-step model to achieve their goal: They first encourage a company or a community to host a sock drive, after which Knock Knock Give A Sock offers them the opportunity to host a “Meet Your Neighbors Dinner.” These dinner programs foster community engagement, effectively turning the transaction of simply donating socks into an interaction that furthers the aim of breaking stigmas while breaking bread. To learn more about their mission and their incredible work to build stronger communities, visit their site.

This event was brought to us by LFC BK member and allstar human, Sally Bolig, who has been grateful to volunteer at this event twice pre-pandemic and now wants to share the opportunity with all her pals here. We’d love to apply our LFC BK energy, passion and kindness to the causes that are near and dear to your hearts.
