Operation Sock-It-To-Me

Bates County Memorial Hospital Auxiliary volunteers are once again collecting sock for the 2023 Operation Sock-It-To-Me campaign, an annual project that helps area school children receive new, warm socks for the cold winter weather.

If you would like to donate, please purchase new socks still in the package, for girls or boys ages 5 to 18 years. Collection boxes for the public are located in the hospital’s front lobby and at each of the Family Care Clinics in Adrian, Butler and Rich Hill. Donations may be dropped off on weekdays between 6:30 am and 5:00 pm until October 31, 2023.

You may also drop off sock donations for this project at the Butler Senior Center in Butler and the Kern Center in Rich Hill.

The donated socks will be delivered to all area schools before the holidays and distributed by school personnel to students in need in grades K-12.

The Auxiliary thanks our community in advance for your help in making Operation Sock-It-To-Me a success.
