Please consider taking part in the 6th annual “A Pair & A Spare: Brown County’s Undercover Challenge”, an annual collection for new socks and new underwear. All of the donated items are distributed to more than 20 Wisconsin agencies and organizations that serve those in need throughout Brown County. New socks and new underwear are two of the most requested, and least donated, clothing items at locations serving low income residents. A Pair & A Spare: Brown County’s Undercover Challenge is a unique way to help those in need by providing a few essential clothing items that will mean so much to the recipients. Just imagine how you would feel if you didn’t have socks and underwear…it’s not something you would think about, but there is a huge need and with community support, this project will be a success! This Challenge runs through February 11th. There is a collection box in our main hallway for these items. Thank you! Golden Ticket Golden Ball Golden Tray
