For some reason, I could totally see this being added to Trump's stump speech. The dangers of the foreign sock charity lobby.
Aiiieeeeeee!

Love them sockies!
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value. "Faith is believing something you know ain't true" Twain.

These are the clothing donations we sorted through on Saturday, to be given out tonight. In all of this, there were maybe 12 socks. So, the donations that this board has given have already trumped all sock donations we had received in the prior week from all across the Vegas valley.
That is huge. What may seem small to some, is actually making such an incredible impact.

Whoa! That's a lot of clothing donations! So happy to hear that MDB is coming through with socks. That's cause MDB is where the cool kids hang. :-)

Fantastic!
Speaking of happy dance, how about a little sock hop?
Turn this up and dance to it, or you ain't a man, Steuss!

These just popped into my Facebook newsfeed -- they were taken last nigh. These are some of the actual people you are helping. These are the lives you are changing with something as simple as socks.
