Initially, the goal was to collect 200 to 300 pairs <br />of socks to send to a charity that helped the homeless. However, the drive <br />exceeded expectations and collected over 1,000 pairs, which were delivered to <br />three different charities. <br />After four years, the drive collected and distributed over 15,000 pairs of socks to <br />the homeless and less fortunate through 12 charitable organizations, all thanks to <br />the generosity and support of the County's great community. Last year, the drive <br />collected 18,881 pairs of socks, which were distributed throughout Indian River <br />County and Palm Beach County. Socks were the number one requested item at <br />homeless shelters. Mr. Standley thanked the volunteers for their time and efforts <br />to help and stated the sock collection boxes were now in over 40 locations <br />throughout the Treasure Coast. <br />No Action Taken or Required <br />C.
