CRG Sock Drive with CVille Sock Love


Charlottesville Radio Group is teaming up with CVille Sock Love and collecting new, fun socks for hospitalized kids and basic, warm socks for our under resourced neighbors through the month of December!  All sizes!

Stop by our studios at 1140 Rose Hill Drive Monday through Friday from 8am-5pm with your donations!

Cville Sock Love was established to provide fun, uplifting socks to hospitalized children. We expanded this mission in 2020 to serve the under-resourced, as well.

WHY SOCKS?

Socks are a basic need that we all share. Plain or patterned, socks protect our feet and keep us warm. Too often, we take a fresh pair for granted. For the unsheltered, a clean pair is a sought-after item.
For families of hospitalized kids, socks and slippers are easily forgotten items. They’re needed for trips to the bathroom and walks in chilly hallways. When it comes to socks for ailing kids, the more fun the designs, the better!

WHERE DO ALL THE SOCKS GO?

Cville Sock Love has donated socks to central Virginia children’s hospitals and to local organizations including:
