Sock Prayer Flags, originally posted by Knitting Iris

OxenFree is a non- profit working with indigent and homeless teenagers in Indianapolis. A resource coordinator recently put out a call asking for sock donations- apparently, they go through socks like you wouldn’t believe. I found this through some of my knitting groups- there are plenty of knitters who look for opportunities to expend excess knitting- but regular old store- bought socks would be a blessing, too. (They could also use toothbrushes, toothpaste, and sanitary supplies.)

Interested in helping out? There’s more information here.

Don’t want to put together a box, run to the post office, ship it out? Too easy; you can shop online at Drugstore.com (toothpaste, toothbrushes, sanitary supplies), or on Amazon.com (socks, socks, socks). Hell, you could even donate handmade from the comfort of your home (toothpaste, toothpaste, socks, socks, socks, socks, socks, socks). This is the address:
