Hannah's Socks • warm feet, warm hearts

Big thanks go out today to Scot Drucker, pitcher for the Toledo Mud Hens!

More than 350 pairs of socks were collected during a Mud Hens game earlier this summer for Hannah's Socks. Today, Scot helped Hannah pass out socks to families in need at one of our long-term partners, Cherry Street Mission Ministries.

Thank you Scot and thank you Mud Hens! You can view more pictures here.

Last weekend, the Turner family took a road trip to Cleveland to visit Walk Of Faith Community Center.

Walk of Faith partners with the Cleveland Food Bank and Hannah's Socks! While we were there we toured their food bank, clothing area and -- now -- a sock area. I was amazed at the organization and all that they do for the less fortunate.

We met with Director Lisa, Pastor Kevin, and many others. The highlight of our trip was sharing a meal with the homeless community. Walk of Faith feeds the homeless each Saturday. Not only do they prepare delicious and nutritious foods, but they also sit down and eat together.

I got to talk with Eric, who shared his story of being homeless, sleeping in a doorway and walking all day long. Eric has come a long way in his journey. Walk Of Faith has done a lot for him, he said. Eric is now a volunteer at Walk of Faith, giving back to help his homeless friends.

Hannah is very happy with our partnership with Cleveland and that the homeless there are getting new socks for their feet.

Big thanks go out today to the team at the Perrysburg, Ohio location of Marco's Pizza!

Franchise owner Renee Williams is partnering with Hannah's Socks for the months of August, September and October. During those months, customers of Marco's (located at 629 W. South Boundary) will receive a free item when they bring in a package of new socks. To kick off the partnership, during the month of August, Marco's will be giving away a free order of CheezyBread when you bring in socks for Hannah.

For more information, call Marco's at (419) 874-1968.

Even the youngest member of the Turner family is learning to sort socks!

Pictured above, Faith helps with part of the donation we received recently from St. Luke's Lutheran Church in Temperance, Michigan. This is the third year where their VBS has collected for Hannah's Socks.

Thanks to the church -- and to Faith :-)
