Description
I am eleven-years-old and have a goal to collect colorful socks and other personal items, such as underwear, for foster kids. I was in foster care for five years. I was mostly given plain white socks to wear. I hated those socks! The other kids had colorful socks with fun designs and cartoon characters. It was another way I felt different. I haven’t worn white socks at all since I was adopted in 2…010! Now I want to help other kids feel special too. Socks may seem like a small thing, but it’s sometimes the little things that mean a lot to a kid. Email socksforsmiles@yahoo.com.
