What is Knock Knock Give A Sock: 

KKGS brings communities together in order to help those experiencing homelessness. In addition to providing needed resources by collecting socks for those in need, they raise awareness about who the homeless are. They turn transactions (collecting socks) into interactions (Meet Your Neighbor Events).

They do this through a two-step process: 1) Engage a company/community in hosting a sock drive. 2) Offer the company the opportunity to host a ‘Meet Your Neighbors Dinner’

They foster community engagement through Meet Your Neighbors Dinners, which move beyond simply collecting socks and actually further the aim of breaking stigmas while breaking bread.

At Knock Knock Give a Sock we collect needed resources, like socks, for communities experiencing homelessness. Since March as a response to COVID-19, we have pivoted to collecting masks for our neighbors living and working in homeless shelters.

Our neighbors living in shelters have little access to masks and often cannot afford them. Our neighbors in the shelters also face great challenges when it comes to social distancing, many are sleep in rooms with beds just several feet apart from one another and are eating in cafeterias that are way too overcrowded. By providing masks for our neighbors in need, we can greatly increase the safety and health of our neighbors experiencing homelessness.
