Springtime Socks and Gloves
Did you know that Sutter Fort (at K & 26th Streets) is a gathering place in the twilight hours for many homeless? St. Francis Church and the nearby hospital attract many people in need of assistance.
Last Saturday after Kellie and I made the rounds at Cesar Chavez park giving out a meal to every interested party we met. After the tour at Cesar, Shane and I covered the area at Sutter Fort, and a few other key areas in midtown and downtown.
Next month we'll probably begin our focus on warmer weather items. As temperatures rise items like tee shirts, chilled bottles of water, chap stick, deodorant and other personal hygiene items become increasingly relevant. Start gathering now for our next outreach on April 26th meeting at Cesar Chavez park at 5PM.
On another note, if you want to donate funds to Socks and Gloves, tax deductible donations may now be made payable to the Vineyard (a local church in downtown Sacramento). Vineyard has graciously adopted Socks and Gloves as one of many missionary efforts they support. Make your check payable to Vineyard, and note "Socks and Gloves" in the memo section.

Welcome to the new Socks & Gloves Blog
Hello everyone. Welcome to www.socksandgloves.blogspot.com. This is our new blog. We switched from our old blog because this new address will be much easier to remember. This blog will be used to talk about Socks & Gloves stuff, but also local and global issues as we see fit.
