As a "giving" project for November, our Girl Scout Troop 
made "Socks of Love" for a local veterans home.  We modified 
an idea we saw online and asked the local veterans home what 
items their residents could use.  Our troop purchased crew 
height socks, baby power (4 oz size), plastic combs, and 
small individual tissue packs.  In addition, our girls made 
small notes and included one in each sock.  We formed an 
assembly line and filled one sock with the matching sock 
(folded up), the toiletries, and a note.  We tied with a red 
bow and attached a "Socks of Love" tag.  The girls had a 
great time assembling the socks and completing a "giving" 
project for the veterans.
