The Inter-Lakes High School Service Club, Interact Club, would like to challenge your civic organization, classroom, and business to collect pairs of socks this October and donate to a local shelter in your area!

Socktober is a sock drive at Inter-Lakes High School started five years ago by a freshmen teacher and is now run by the Interact Club at the school. The goal is to donate socks to our neighbors in need.

Inter-Lakes High School Interact Club asks you to join in attempts to collect and donate more than 20,000 pairs of socks this year! If your school, service club, or business decides to participate, please email ILHS Interact Club Adviser Laura Brusseau and ILHS Student and Sock Drive Coordinator and President of Interact Jasmine Morrissette at laura.brusseau@interlakes.org or jasmine.morrissette@interlakes.org

To participate, you agree to set up bins around your school, business or community starting now until Nov. 1. After the drive ends, we ask that you email us how many socks you collected, photos and where you donated the socks.
