Hanes Donates 200,000 Pairs of Socks to Help Homeless

Published: December 16, 2015

Hanes, Winston-Salem, N.C., recently announced the return of its annual sock drive by committing to donate 200,000 pairs of socks, building on its total donation of more than 1.5 million pairs since 2009. 



The donated socks will be distributed to Salvation Army community centers across the country.

Socks are the most needed, but least donated, article of clothing at homeless shelters, according to the company. With more than 177,000 homeless people living unsheltered across the United States, this donation will help Salvation Army community centers provide new socks for those who need them most.
