United Way to host sock drive

The United Way of Southwest Oklahoma is collecting socks to provide local homeless shelters during the month of October.

“At United Way, we seek to improve lives and work to meet the needs of those in the community,” Lauren Ellis, president and CEO of the United Way said. “Hosting a sock drive is a simple, easy way for us to work with the community to provide support to our most vulnerable population.”

This is the first year for the United Way to host Socktober.
