Socktober

Well here I am again typing before you just a girl trying to raise funds for our adoption expenses.  Hahaha.  You guys are the kindest for putting up with all this fundraising.  Really and truly you are.  So thank you!!!  And here we go again.

Today we’re kicking off a two week Socktober fundraiser.  Patterned socks are all the rage right now and we’re here to make those socks do more than just warm your feet and style your shins & calves.  Isn’t God just the most creative and best?!?!  I mean, let’s just reminisce over our past month and a half of fundraising.  So far He’s used jewelry and accessories from around the world, panda tees, bundt cake, key fobs, stationary, bible journaling classes and now socks.  Yes, I really do like God.  He’s my jam.

We Help Two reached out to our family and shared about their amazing sock fundraising website.  Not only do they help families fundraise, but they also give back on top of that.

So let’s break it down.  Here’s how it will work:

Starting today through October 31st, you guys can head over to the We Help Two Sock Store and make your sock purchases.  When checking out you’ll be prompted with Name of Organization You Are Helping just type in “The Kelleys“.

Our family receives 60% of your purchase!!!!!!  That’s a crazy high percentage you guys.  Crazy high.

We Help Two ships you your socks. (try and say that 3 times fast)

For every pack of socks sold, We Help Two will also give our family a pair of socks to donate to a homeless shelter or local school.  Seriously, does it get much better than this.  Fun, funky socks, adoption and give back…they had me at “socks”.

I’m always super particular about what I share with you guys because I want things to be legit and good.  We Help Two so kindly sent us samples of all their sock options and the Kelley family is in love.  Everyone has been rocking their socks and we’re all super pleased.  Solomon and Josh Kelley are the biggest fun sock guys now.  Solomon might have to wear a uniform to school, but he rocks some funky socks with it now too.  It’s the cutest.

This is such a great Christmas or birthday gift.  Maybe just a “Hey, I like you” gift.  Stocking stuffer at it’s finest.  And you get to tell the recipients their gift made a bigger impact in this world.  Ahhhhh, I just love it so much.  It makes me teary because it’s just an honor to participate in these things.  We feel so crazy blessed.

So there you have it.  2 weeks people.  2 weeks to order socks for every person in your life.  Dads, moms, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, neighbors, strangers, grandparents, nieces, nephews, favorite banker, postal employee, produce gal at your super market.  Come on.  Everyone loves a fun pair of socks.  And please help us share.  Let’s take to the inter webs and Instagram, Facebook, Tweet, Pinterest and email like there’s no tomorrow.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.  We are praying audacious, giant, impossible things for our boy because God is in the audacious, giant and impossible business.  Makes my heart beat faster.  He is good!

Happy Tuesday!
