There is an enormous need for NEW SOCKS across charities and shelters in Canada. People think about donating many other items of clothing but often forget about the almighty pair of socks! Socks are vital to keep feet dry, warm and free from disease.

 

What's Happening

This is our 9th season of Socks for Hope, collecting socks from Dec 1- 18 annually. We are excited to share all of the details for 2022! Enjoy the highlights below or check out the menu above for more information.

 

Honouring Our History

We will continue to pay homage to our roots and Burlington Taxi, spotlighting the colour yellow in our branding and honouring our history. Thank you to Capture Studios, for making these important elements stand out in all of our creative. Check out Our Story page to learn more.
 

Key Dates of the Campaign

Socks for Hope kicked-off our sock collection campaign at Candlelit Stroll, Downtown Burlington, on November 25!

Our official campaign runs December 1-18, where you can donate to over 50 different Sock Ambassadors throughout Halton and Hamilton, or host a collection of your own. See our Community page to engage with any of our community partners!

​

Collaboration with Local Burlington & Hamilton Students

We have some enthusiastic students volunteering their time and skills to help elevate our campaign. This website is student made! And lots more students are helping out -  collecting socks on their teams, in their schools and taking part in in-class projects to learn more about the organizations we support. Click on our Student Involvement page to read more.

 

We are a Nonprofit Organization

Socks for Hope is a nonprofit organization. Everything is donated and deliveries are made by volunteers. All monetary donations  buy new socks, cover costs like signage and crates, and help us raise spirit with some cookies & hot chocolate for our kick-off!

Thanks to our giving community, we enjoy a growing momentum every year! We are grateful for all of your support💛
