For each pair of socks purchased through Marisa Sheff’s Sock Footage, a donation pair is provided in hopes that the person purchasing will donate them in person or select one of the partner organizations for the socks to be donated to. Although other brands have similar models, Marisa encourages her customers to create conversations with homeless individuals by personally donating the socks. She does so with the belief that one person does have the power to change the life of a total stranger.
