"Socks are an everyday need for children," Brown said. "We know that if your feet are cold, everything is cold. This all started when I noticed children at the bus stop coming to our house to warm up while waiting on the bus and not having socks on. I asked a question and I came up with a solution. Your help is much needed to reach the children of the community. I will distribute socks at bus stops and at schools.
"As a youth leader, mother and school board member, I am more driven to be more noticeable about the needs of our children. Giving back to help others is a service and an honor. Join me in my endeavor to care about our future generation. Socks will be distributed after Chrismas Break."
