The Heitt Project

The Heitt project is a not-for-profit organization that collects warm socks for the homeless and poor of Boston and surrounding communities. Harsh, cold winters put these children, women and men at risk for frostbite and other cold injuries. Warm socks are a basic clothing item that many of us take for granted but can mean a lot to someone who must live in harsh conditions on the street, in a car or in a shelter.

The Heitt project is a not-for-profit program to distribute warm socks to the homeless of Boston and surrounding communities during the cold, wet winter months. Volunteers will distribute these socks to street homeless, shelters and hospitals. We will soon be seeking donations of warm, winter socks and will post the address for mailing and/or drop-off center soon. Thanks!
