Notes of Thanks from our Frontline Partners
We are grateful to every organization we work with that distributes our socks to their service recipients who are experiencing homelessness. We couldn’t do the work we do without them and they play a vital role in supporting the most vulnerable in our communities. Thank you to all our supporters and donors who have made it possible for us to get socks onto the feet of people who need them most!
Good Shepard Centre:
“Good Shepherd Centre is honored to have such an incredible partner in Socks 4 Souls Canada. Their commitment to the health and wellbeing of some of the most vulnerable in our community is admirable. With the provision of something so basic as a pair of socks, they are helping to not only keep our homeless clientele’s feet warm and dry but in many cases helping to deter serious foot ailments that can lead to even more serious illness. Good Shepherd is grateful to Socks 4 Souls Canada and to all the donors and supporters of this worthy cause.”
The Works, City of Toronto:
“We just received an amazing donation of socks from your organization right in time for winter!! We hand out SO many pairs of socks at the door and this will be beyond helpful for our clients – some of whom show up at our doors in the coldest months, with nothing on their feet. The work we do could not be done without great community partners like Socks 4 Souls! Thank you from all of us here at Toronto Public Health!”
Brantford Native Housing:
“On behalf of Brantford Native Housing, I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Socks 4 Souls Canada for their outstanding support in helping us meet the needs of our community. This year, we have been providing essential clothing assistance to a monthly average of 156 individuals seeking support, with a particular emphasis on socks, which are one of the most requested items.
Socks are often an overlooked necessity, but their importance cannot be overstated, especially in the colder months. Keeping feet warm, dry, and healthy is critical for overall well-being, and for many of our community members, access to clean, quality socks is not always guaranteed. Thanks to the generous donations we’ve received from Socks 4 Souls Canada, we have been able to better support these individuals, ensuring they stay comfortable and protected through the winter season.
The partnership with Socks 4 Souls Canada has made a significant difference in our ability to serve those in need, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration in the future. Their commitment to helping those in vulnerable situations is truly appreciated, and we are deeply grateful for the positive impact they have made in our community.”
Lambton Public Health:
“When I hand socks to clients, their faces light up and they’re very appreciative. Clients often walk long distances and having clean socks makes such a difference. When we can offer basic needs items such as the socks, it helps to build relationships and trust with clients so they’re more likely to continue accessing services.”
AIDS Committee of Cambridge, Waterloo & Area:
“We appreciate each and every donation that we are able to pass along to our unhoused friends. Socks 4 Souls Canada provides essential warmth and protection, shielding unhoused individuals from the harsh elements and keeping their feet healthy. By donating socks, Socks 4 Souls Canada helps alleviate the discomfort and potential health risks associated with cold, unprotected feet, improving the overall well-being of unhoused people. Socks 4 Soul Canada’s simple yet impactful initiative ensures that those experiencing homelessness have access to basic necessities, empowering them to face the challenges of life on the streets with greater dignity and resilience.”
