Cosumnes Firefighters Association Helping EG's Homeless

The Cosumnes Firefighters Association will be conducting their Second Annual Socks for the Homeless Drive, March 1 - 31, 2012.

If you are able to participate, bring new white socks to the fire stations listed below to benefit the homeless. Monetary donations will also be accepted.

Clothing donations rarely include socks, which can be important to a person's health and well-being. Prolonged use of dirty, wet and worn socks can lead to fungal and bacterial infections, frostbite and blisters. Much of our homeless clients' life is spent on foot; imagine how your simple donation can make a big difference in an individual's life.

The event is also made possible by the generous contributions from Elk Grove Ford, facilitating signage and collection bins at all three stations.

Donation Locations:
Station 71 - 8760 Elk Grove Boulevard, Elk Grove 95624
Station 74 - 6501 Laguna Park Drive, Elk Grove 95758
Station 46 - 1050 Walnut Avenue, Galt 95632
