Leading manufacturer and supplier of premium building products and technologies donates over 18,800 pairs of socks
CARLISLE, Pa., March 28, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Carlisle Construction Materials (CCM), headquartered in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, with plants around the country, is proud to announce the donation of over 18,800 pairs of socks to communities in need. Socks are the number one most needed item at shelters around the country, with over 500,000 individuals experiencing homelessness on any given night.
During the month of February, CCM collected socks at 28 facilities around the United States. The initiative, called "Sockuary", helped to impact 17 organizations, from youth-oriented groups like Preble Street Teen Services in Portland, Maine, to emergency shelters like Helping Hands House in Puyallup, Washington. Carlisle has always tried to be a good corporate steward and this initiative is consistent with that goal.
"This was the first time we have done a nationwide company initiative," said Mike DuCharme, Vice President of Marketing and sponsor of CCM's Community Stewardship Team. "We were excited to see the level of employee engagement around this initiative and the impact that we were able to make. Our company has demonstrated a commitment to the communities in which it operates, and we are already looking toward our next project."
