Rosie Cares District 111: Socks for Tots Fundraiser
The Rosie Cares District 111 campaign introduces Rosie's Socks for Tots Fundraiser, running from November 1 through December 31, 2025. This initiative, in partnership with Next Step Forward and Brand New Village, aims to provide warmth and dignity to children in need during the winter season while advancing Rosie Brown's platform of community care, education, and neighborhood revitalization.
Why It Matters
Every child deserves warm socks during cold months. This initiative reflects Rosie’s commitment to meeting essential needs as a foundation for learning, opportunity, and unity. It aligns with Rosie’s broader vision: reviving the American Dream and restoring democracy through community-driven action. Rosie’s Socks for Tots is more than a holiday drive, it’s a movement of care and community solidarity.
