The Social Sock Factory
The Social Sock Factory is a place where we provide employment to Salvation Army participants. A place where we make socks in a sustainable way with and for the poorest of the poor. Socks that we all then give away to the homeless people in the Netherlands.
In samenwerking met het Leger des Heils

Waarom wij sokken doneren?
Doneer jij je sokken? Of gooi je deze versleten in de prullenbak? Inderdaad, sokken belanden niet in de kleding inzameling maar worden afgedragen in de prullenbak gegooid.
In Nederland zijn meer dan 60.000 (!!) mensen afhankelijk van kleding inzameling voor hun comfortt Zij hebben dus geen toegang tot iets simpels als een paar sokken. Daarom doneren wij een paar sokken voor elk paar wat we verkopen.
We geven hiermee warme voeten, maar misschien nog wel veel belangrijker, de sokken zijn een heleboel kleine momentjes van aandacht. Een begin van een gesprek, van hulp of een vriendschap.
Jij uniek sokken, zij warme voeten!
