Inspired by meeting California’s oldest female veteran, students in the Cypress College Veterans Organization have decided to take up her cause of caring for homeless veterans.

Calling the effort “Socks for Soles,” the CCBO is collecting both monetary donations and new socks through the end of the semester.

CCVO President Derek Hendershot discussed the project in an interview with Public Information Office intern Derrick Coleman.

Donations can be made at the Information Booth, located on the first floor of the Student Center, or in the Veterans Resource Center, on the second floor of the Cypress College Complex.

For more information, call 714-484-7150.
