He stated that when he first started the drive he had hoped to get <br />300-400 pairs of socks, but received 1,000 pairs, and split those among three <br />charities. Last year, they collected over 11,000 pairs of new socks and <br />distributed them to 12 charities, and stated the sock drive had grown <br />exponentially over time. The grand total of new, in -the -package socks that have <br />been collected and distributed over the last four years was in excess of 23,000 <br />pairs. He stated the sock drive began with a small group of caring friends and <br />neighbors who wanted to do something kind to help the community. Everyone <br />volunteers their time and efforts to help, and the sock collection boxes were now <br />in over 30 locations throughout the Treasure Coast.
