SOCKTEMBER 2023

Thirty-eight teams, from Canada and the United States, many of whom were new to the competition, worked diligently during the month of September to enlist their teams and communities to help them raise socks. SOCKTember 2023 set a new world record raising and donating 72,441 pairs of NEW socks. In four years this brings the total of NEW socks raised and donated to charitable organizations to 202,167.
