Plumas Rural Services Winter Boot and Sock Drive Helps Keep Domestic Violence Survivors Warm

SHARE NOW

Plumas Rural Services reports that its Domestic Violence Services program’s winter boot and sock drive, held in late November and early December 2025, was a success. With support from Plumas Bank, which provided space to collect donations across the county, PRS-DVS received 98 boots and 73 pairs of warm socks from the public.

The program also collected monetary donations in the amount of $428 and collected an additional $222 from their Bloom with Strength bouquet sale fundraiser in October. With these funds, the PRS-DVS program was able to purchase another 14 pairs of boots, with a small amount held in reserve to purchase more boots when specific needs arise for survivors of domestic violence and their dependents over the winter.

PRS offers congratulations to the PRS-DVS staff on this successful effort, and a “huge thank-you” to the community for its support to help keep local neighbors’ toes warm this winter.
