Socks to Warm Feet and Food to Eat on LA’s Skid Row

Hanes and The Salvation Army gear up to launch their third annual Virtual Sock Drive to bring comfort to those in need during the holidays.  This year, the partners bring their virtual Facebook drive to life by distributing Hanes socks and food to LA’s homeless on Skid Row from a pop-up ‘food cart’.

Joining these efforts is homeless advocate and founder of InvisiblePeople.TV, Mark Horvath.  Horvath, who travels the country distributing socks to the homeless, will mark the end of his 2011 cross-country tour with Hanes and The Salvation Army on Friday, November 4, in Gladys Park.
