Socktober is the New October
Kid President is at it again [VIDEO]
Fact: On any given night, around 600,000 people in the United States are without a home – either on the street or in a shelter - and they're in need of socks to keep them warm in the cold winter.
In partnership with Soul Pancake, our favorite Kid President has a new decree - renaming the month of October Socktober - and it comes with a challenge: getting one million people to perform a small act of kindness towards the homeless this month.
Aside from donating socks, there are other ways to get involved: folks can volunteer at a local shelter or introduce themselves to someone living on the street, and perhaps share a meal with them.
As part of Socktober, Kid President is raising money to build a mobile homeless care unit in Little Rock, Arkansas, and has even released a song in which half of all proceeds go to the cause.
So how are you going to celebrate Socktober?
