SOCK DRIVE!

"socksANONYMOUS is a militant group of do-gooders using social media and humor to improve the world one fun stunt at a time."




JEFFERSONVILLE - A group of anonymous organizers will be holding a sock drive to benefit the homeless. The donation will be made in the name of the Clark County Chatter, though organizers stress their group has no official ties to the local Internet forum.

Those wishing to donate new socks may drop them off at the office of local attorney David Mosley, 332 Spring St. in Jeffersonville from April 2 through April 13.

"We really appreciate Mr. Mosley's gracious assistance in allowing socks to be collected at his office and to be the public face of this otherwise anonymous project. His participation is the key logistical piece that has made this effort possible," said one organizer.

Socks collected will be given to Clean Socks Hope to be distributed to those needing them. For more information, contact David Mosley at 812-282-9000."

UPDATE:  This is David Mosley. I am not associated with this effort. I do not know anything about the validity of the organization that is supposed to be the beneficiary. They may be fine and tip top, but I do not know, and do not endorse it.

Please disregard the invitation to involve me in your charity. I am in favor of charity. But I was involved in this without my permission or consent. (it may simply be an april fool 'joke' on me.) 

I do favor charitable acts for the homeless. I recommend making donations to Haven House or Exit Zero in Jeffersonville. Thank you. -David Mosley

Sorry to hear about that, David.  The charity involved seems to be legit and a good thing overall.  I understand that GG has graciously offered to take on the responsibility of receiving the donations, so hopefully that will smooth any ruffled feathers and still help out a worthy cause.
