In honor of World Diabetes Day, Socks4Life.com is donating 10% of all orders placed on November 14th to the American Diabetes Association, in hopes that a cure is soon found.
Diabetes research is a cause near and dear to our hearts at Socks4life.com, which is why we are proud to support the American Diabetes Association. From sponsoring the Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes in Indianapolis to volunteering our time, Socks4Life is constantly collaborating with the ADA, in search of new ways to support diabetes research. You can learn more about our involvement with the ADA and see pictures from the Step Out walk in Indianapolis on our blog.
On World Diabetes Day and every Friday during the month of November, the International Diabetes Federation and diabetic online community asks that we wear blue to support diabetes awareness. Socks4life is sporting the blue and you should too!

Socks4Life Helps this Holiday Season
This holiday season, the Socks4Life team invites you to spread warmth and good cheer to those in need. And during the winter months, a single pair of socks becomes more important than ever. Keeping warm from head to toe is key to trapping body heat and preventing hypothermia – a condition which claims nearly 700 lives each year in the United States alone, according to the CDC. For those less fortunate, a fresh pair of socks can provide warmth, health, and hygiene, which is why new socks typically top the list of holiday needs for shelters across the country.
This winter, the Socks4Life team asks you to join us in our efforts to keep America warm by donating gently-used winter clothing to your local shelter or clothing drive.
Around Indianapolis
At Socks4Life, we believe it’s the little things that can make a big difference – like a pair of socks. We believe in putting our best foot forward to lend a helping hand. And the best place to start is in your very own backyard!
As proud Hoosiers, the Socks4Life team is committed to making a difference around the Indianapolis area. Each year, we take to the trails around our community, walking to raise money for causes that hit close to home.
Across the Country
Inspired by the infectious spirit of those we have met in Indianapolis, we have expanded our efforts outside of the Circle City.
