Dear PS 101 Families:

It’s Socktober at PS 101! Starting Monday, October 26th, our Little Lighthouse Team will be organizing a special donation project, and we need your help!

As we prepare for the colder months, we have teamed up with The Kensington Family Shelter to help make a difference for families in need. One item that shelters are always in need of is socks! We hope you can help and participate in Socktober to donate brand new, packaged socks.

PS 101 Will Sock it to the Cold!

As winter winds begin to blow,
Let’s help our neighbors head to toe!
Bring new socks, warm, soft, and neat,
To help keep kindness on its feet!

Donations will be accepted in the main lobby of our school from Monday, October 26th until Tuesday, November 10th. Students can stop and drop packaged socks into our Sock Monster during arrivals each morning!

Keep in mind when donating:

• Socks, Socks, Socks–Children and adult sizes are needed.
• Remember, all donated socks must be new and unopened socks.
• Used socks will not be accepted.
• Let’s come together as a school community to spread warmth, comfort, and care this season!

Thank you for your generosity and support! Your donations make a big difference and help families stay warm.

We appreciate your generosity very much. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our Parent Coordinator, Ms. Bing Xing Lin at 347-563-4680 or via email at BLin9@schools.nyc.gov.

Sincerely,

Our PS 101 Little Lighthouse Team
