Join Us for “Socktober” and Make a Difference This October!
Oct 01, 2024
At Emler Swim School, we believe in the power of community—both in and out of the pool. That’s why this October, we’re excited to host our annual Socktober Donation Drive to help those in need, and we need your support to make it a splash!
What is Socktober?
Socktober is a month-long donation drive where we collect new pairs of socks to benefit local charities and shelters. Socks are one of the most requested yet least donated items for people in need, especially as the weather gets colder. A simple pair of socks can provide warmth, comfort, and dignity for those facing difficult circumstances. This October, let’s come together to make a big impact with a small item that means so much.
How Can You Help? 🧦
We’re making it easy for our Emler families to give back! All month long, we’re encouraging our swim families to bring in new pairs of socks, any style, size, or color. Whether it’s cozy wool socks, athletic socks, or fun and colorful patterns, every pair counts and will go directly to those in need.
Here’s How to Participate:
-
- Drop Off Socks: Simply bring in your donations of new socks to our donation box by the front desk during your swim lessons throughout the month of October.
- Spread the Word: Share the Socktober spirit with friends and family! The more socks we collect, the bigger our impact. Feel free to post about it on social media and encourage others to participate.
- Wear Fun Socks to Class: To celebrate the spirit of Socktober, we encourage you and your kiddos to wear your fun socks to swim lessons during the month of October!
Together, We Can Make a Difference! 💙
As a swim school, we’re passionate about teaching lifelong swim skills and building a strong, supportive community. Socktober is our way of giving back to that community and making a real difference in the lives of our neighbors. We’re proud to partner with local charities to distribute these donations to those who need them most, and with your help, we know we can make this Socktober the best one yet!
Let’s show how much our Emler Swim School family cares. Together, we can dive into a month of giving and make a positive impact in our community—one pair of socks at a time!
Don’t forget to bring in your donations during your next swim lesson. Let’s make this Socktober our biggest one yet!
