Get Your Socks On: Help Children With AIDS

by James Parks, Nov 21, 2009

Some 2 million children are living with HIV/AIDS worldwide, and 1,000 more become infected every day. The Communications Workers of America (CWA) is teaming up with the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation and the producers of the fun children’s DVD “Sockville—A New Pair of Socks” to help fight pediatric HIV/AIDS.

For every DVD purchased at a special $9.99 price, $3 will go to the Elizabeth Glaser Foundation, CWA’s charity of choice for nearly 20 years. The foundation is a global leader in efforts to raise awareness, prevent HIV transmission and expand life-saving treatment to HIV-positive children around the world.

The “Sockville” DVD was designed and produced by Patrick Voss, a member of CWA Local 6300 in St. Louis. The story explores the question that has been bugging us, our parents and even our grandparents—”Where does that one sock go when it gets lost in the laundry?”

“Sockville: A New Pair of Socks” introduces us to Bobby Sock and Polly Esther, who, like many socks before them, got lost in the dryer. But have no fear. Sockville awaits them. It’s a land full of imagination, creativity, learning and lots of colorful and unique sock friends. Check out the video trailer for the DVD here.
