Socks to Afghanistan
Last year a friend of ours put out a call for help, sending warm alpaca socks to soldiers. Amazing that this might appear, the ARMY's socks are lousy in cold weather. Those of us who know and love alpaca fiber know what a great sock you get when adding a good percentage of our favorite fiber to the mix.
Last year hundreds of socks were donated from alpaca farmers, alpaca retails, the American Co-Op organization and regular folk everywhere. This year the program has the goals of sending thousands to troops in Afghanistan.
Being 45 I can now say that these "kids", some 18, many under 21, are out there, risking their lives thousands of miles away from home in harsh cold weather. The Socks Brigade program not only provides soft, cozy and warm socks for the feet, it warms the soldier's heart to know there is someone back home thinking about them and their difficult task.
This not about politics, it's about our young people risking life and limb and those of us who care having a small way of telling them so. Please feel encouraged to join us.
Through February (or until we run out), PurelyAlpaca is donating a pair of the USA made Extreme socks for every order we receive in which you buy a pair for yourself.
