Alek Geiger’s
Big Sock Drive

This summer our local Christian radio station KSBJ will be hosting a Buckner Orphan Care
Shoes for Orphan Souls shoe drive.

Alek is doing his part to help by trying to collect 500 pairs of socks to donate to this drive. These socks will be taken along with the shoes they collect and distributed to orphans of all ages all over the world.

1 Five- year- old
+500 pairs of socks
= 1000 warm happy feet

Please send NEW socks of all sizes to:
Alek Geiger
2538 Tinechester
Kingwood, TX 77339

Thank You
Alek


Please do what you can to help him reach his goal. He is really looking forward to getting started soon. Also please feel free to pass this along to others.

Thanks,
Kelli (Alek's mom)

From Suz:
Alek was adopted in Russia not long after D. He is a precious boy and this is a wonderful thing he is doing. If you can, please pick up a pair of socks while you're out and about and send them to Alek. It will be neat for him to see socks coming from all over the world and I know my blog friends have big hearts when it comes to orphans!! We probably all have a story we could tell about the clothes, socks and shoes that our children were wearing when we first met them (if you don't yet - you will!)!

Our pair of socks are in the mail! I had just made V a pair of embellished socks where I crocheted and beaded them. I will send them to another "V" to enjoy since our V will have socks a'plenty soon (we hope!)

I help out with a drive in the summer for Ukrainian orphanages - the man at the post office thought it was hillarious that I turned up wanting to post 50 pairs!!!
