Sock It to Harvey with 100 Mile Club
“No one can do everything but everyone can do something.” -Max Lucado Thank you to everyone who donated!

Sometimes, the littlest things we never really think about are the most needed after a disaster like this. Socks. We are one big 100 Mile Club Family. We teach our kids to work together and become a team on their journey to 100 miles. Now, let’s be there for each other and team up to help our Texas 100 Mile Club® schools. **It’s time to SOCK it to Harvey & get our kids back on their feet again!** All you have to do is bring a new pair of socks to The 100 Mile Club.
