At John’s Crazy Socks, giving back is at the heart of everything we do. Through our Giving Back Program, we’ve donated $800,000 to charity partners, supporting charity partners like the Special Olympics, the National Down Syndrome Society, and the Autism Society of America. Join us in celebrating this milestone and help us continue creating joy, promoting inclusivity, and giving back to the community.
We’ve designed Polar Plunge Socks and they’re as cozy as they are meaningful. With every pair sold, 10% is donated to support Special Olympics New York, helping fund athletes in training and competition
