Letter To The Editor: An Appeal For Donated Socks For The Homeless
We are all acutely aware of the effects of this cold time of year – and the homeless amongst us even more so. Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program is an amazing agency, caring for those less fortunate in so many ways. Now, they have teamed up with the BOSTON RED SOX to address one of those needs: clean, warm socks. The lack of the ability to keep feet warm and protected leads to many cases of frostbite and amputation – sad realities that are so easily preventable through distributing clean socks to those in need.
