Ryan Galli hasn't added a story.
We are Ryan and Jen, a few years ago we started to find ways that we could give back around Christmas time, so that our children could see how important it is to take care of other people. We handed out coffee at the fire hall, made Christmas cards for a seniors home and delivered Christmas lunch to the homeless community in a downtown park. These were small things, but they made us and the people we were helping feel so good.
Last year, with the help of some people at our gym, one of the projects that we did was to collect and distribute new socks to those experiencing homelessness. Vancouver is wet and in the winter it can rain for days; the number one thing that people living on the street need during these times are clean, dry socks. We were overwhelmed by the gratitude and it made us realize that we could do better than white tube socks.
So this year our goal is a big one. We are hoping to raise the money needed to purchase 1000 pairs of waterproof socks to hand out in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside this holiday season.
We have partnered with a sock manufacturer to produce waterproof, breathable socks to help keep people comfortable during a cold, wet winter.
Please help us with whatever you can so that we can get to our goal of handing out 1000 pairs! Donations of any size are appreciated; we will make sure to document our story so that you can see the difference that your dollars made!
