The Times
Newtown podiatrist Dr. Lawrence Kalker is again partnering with Valley Youth House in Warminster for the 5th Annual Holiday Sock Drive to benefit the shelter.
The Sock Drive will take place beginning this fall through Jan. 1. Kalker Podiatry is reaching out to their patients as well as the community to donate new pairs of socks to this worthy organization. Since 2013, the Sock Drive has been a huge success collecting more than 2,800 pairs of socks as well as nearly $2,000 in monetary donations.
Socks may be dropped off at Kalker Podiatry, 6 S. Sycamore St. in Newtown. To make a monetary donation, make checks payable to Valley Youth House (please designate Warminster/Bucks Shelter on the check). Monetary donations may be mailed directly to Valley Youth House, 1500 Sansom St., Suite 300A, Philadelphia, PA 19102.
Kalker Podiatry specializes in geriatric, pediatric, and family foot care. Dr. Lawrence Kalker treats all conditions affecting the foot and ankle including sports injuries and diabetic foot disorders.
