The PENTA CARES Foundation recently held a month long sock drive, collecting more than 3,600 pairs to benefit nonprofits in the Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Phoenix areas. Locally, the socks were donated to the Las Vegas Rescue Mission. In addition, handmade caps and scarves were gifted to the American Cancer Society and Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation.
Socks are frequently the most needed but least donated item in homeless shelters around the country.
PENTA CARES is the charitable arm of The PENTA Building Group, a nationally recognized commercial contractor operating throughout the Southwest United States. In 2019 alone, PENTA CARES donated more than $900,000 company-wide, and organized 335 volunteers, who served approximately 3,000 hours with 42 nonprofits.
