In Person: Socktober & Compassion Kits 10.9.22

14 W. Lakeview Ave.,Columbus OH 43202

09 October, 2022

Description

Who this In Person Event is for: Ages 4-12. Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome, but may find the event to be less meaningful and fulfilling. What we'll be doing: October is also known as Socktober! Did you know that socks are the most needed item but the least donated? As winter approaches, socks are in high demand at shelters and resource pantries, and caring kids can help! Prior to the event, kids are encouraged to bring new socks or conduct their own donation drive for the compassion kits assembled at the event. Children will also gain empathy for our unhoused neighbors by listening to a story and discussing the inequality of resources in our community. COVID-19 Protocol for In Person Events: Please review our COVID-19 Protocol for In Person Programming before registering for this event. This is an indoor event and masks are recommended. Specific instructions: All supplies will be provided. We ask each family to bring pairs of new socks to be donated to CRC. Why you'll be asked to pay a supply fee and donate: On the next page you'll be asked to pay a fee to offset supply costs for this event. These fees are non-refundable. If you have to cancel your registration later, please know that your fee will go toward our efforts to create more meaningful service-focused programs for Columbus-area kids. Every time we're able to design, coordinate, and offer an opportunity for kids to give back, it's with the help of supporters like you. Please consider making a generous gift to help us continue to empower kids to create a kinder community with their hearts, hands, and minds. We never want supply fees to prevent someone from participating in a Seeds of Caring project. If you would like assistance covering your supply fees, please email [email protected] and we will register you for free, no questions asked.
