As the new year begins, we want to pause and look back together at the colorful moments that 2023 has given us. A year full of colors, creativity and, above all, social commitment.
DillySocks is not just about colorful socks that make your feet more beautiful, but also about the colorful footprints we leave in the world together. This year we had the privilege of donating socks to several remarkable organizations. Let's look back together at the heart projects that were made possible by your support and our mission.
Caritas Switzerland: 3089 pairs of socks for warmth and security
We donated over 3089 pairs of socks to Caritas Switzerland through our participation in the Caritas Fair Friday project ! The basis for our donation in kind was the number of orders during Colorful Week, i.e. between November 17th and 27th. The Fair Friday campaign also enabled you to not only donate warmth for your feet, but also to pass on financial resources of CHF 400 directly to Caritas. A big thank you to all DillySocks customers who made this possible through their orders!
Café Yucca in Zurich - 2505.- CHF donation through our Advent calendar
We were able to donate over 2505 CHF to Café Yucca Zurich through our Advent calendars . Every year, Café Yucca organizes a Christmas dinner for those in need, especially for homeless people. DillySocks was able to support this important event with a donation! Everyone who bought the sock Advent calendar helped to continue the Christmas tradition at Café Yucca.

We are proud of the social projects that we have been able to support with both financial means and donations in kind. A big THANK YOU also goes to our customers! Without the purchase of our socks, the implementation of social commitment on this scale would not be possible.
We are already looking forward to 2024 - together with you. Your DillySocks Team
