Distribution Of Collected Socks For Area Homeless Planned

1906 Madison Ave

Toledo, OH 43604

February 13, 2022

TOLEDO- NW Ohio is known for its winters, which can contain bone chilling temperatures that sometimes dip below the zero mark. With this type of weather the area homeless are the ones who will suffer the most. Accessibility to warm clothing is critical at this point. 

Toledo Hemp Center, known for its continued community involvement with its water collections, community cookouts and more, has once again stepped up to the plate. To help the area homeless keep their feet warm during the cold months the popular hemp CBD business held its “Sock it to the homeless problem” sock collection from January 19th thru February 2nd!

The Toledo Hemp Center sock collection brought together many of the local business’ supporters from around the area helping to gather 450 pairs of socks for those less fortunate. 

The socks collected will be distributed in downtown Toledo at 1906 Madison Ave on Sunday, February 13. The distribution will begin setting up at 11:00am beginning distribution at 11:30am and will last until all items have been distributed. Toledo Hemp Center will be loading its collection at its location located at 4925 Jackman Rd #20 (Miracle Mile Shopping Center) at 10:30am. 

To accomplish this, the hemp store has networked with Backpacks For Humans 419, a local organization whose mission is to make life easier for those living on the street or in poverty by giving them life basics. Backpacks For Humans 419 sets up in downtown Toledo and distributes backpacks filled with items to help the homeless and those less fortunate on a weekly basis. Toledo Hemp Center owner Kevin Spitler says “Working with Backpacks For Humans will allow us to get the items collected directly to those in need.” 

Those interested in helping to distribute items are welcome to join the event and can meet up at the 1906 Madison Ave location. Dress warm!
