Thank you for supporting 'The 1234 Project' - 12,340 socks on their way to homeless clients


Mission Australia would like to thank everyone who got involved in the recent 1234 Project on Facebook. The campaign has successfully ensured the delivery of 12,340 socks to homeless people across Australia.

'The 1234 Project' was launched on Facebook on the 11th June. The simple concept involved 1234 donating a pair of socks to a Mission Australia client each time a Facebook supporter 'Liked' the 1234 Project page, with the target set on 12,340 pairs of socks.

As many homeless people only own one pair, socks are usually one of the most heavily-damaged and highly-valued articles of clothing they own - so it is fantastic that our supporters have been able to help provide our clients a new pair this winter.

Stay tuned to see what's been achieved - we will keep our Facebook page updated with photos and news updates about the socks reaching their destinations around the country...
