Hoffman High groups collecting socks for soldiers
Hoffman Estates High School's community service club, PALS, is collecting socks, the most requested care package item for military personnel during the holiday season, according to the directors of Operation Care Package in Joliet. Donations of new, white, crew-length athletic socks are being collected through Dec. 11 at the school, 1100 W. Higgins Road in Hoffman Estates. This is the fifth year that PALS has worked with Operation Care Package to send socks to the men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces stationed around the world. Over the year's, PALS has collected over 2,000 pairs of socks, and is hoping to add to that number this year.
