Maddie and Paige Stein donate to Hannah’s Socks<br />
For twins Maddie and Paige Stein’s sixth birthday, <strong>the</strong> girls received socks–69 pairs of<br />
various sizes, colors and styles of socks. Instead of presents, <strong>the</strong> twins wanted to do<br />
something different–to make a difference. With <strong>the</strong> assistance of <strong>the</strong>ir parents, <strong>the</strong>y<br />
looked on <strong>the</strong> Internet for local organizations <strong>the</strong>y could help and discovered Hannah’s<br />
Socks.<br />
So instead of games, books, puzzles and dolls, Maddie and Paige asked family and<br />
friends for socks. And recently, <strong>the</strong> girls made a stop at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Messenger</strong> <strong>Journal</strong> office to<br />
drop off <strong>the</strong>ir “birthday socks” in <strong>the</strong> Hannah’s Socks collection box.<br />
Hannah’s Socks, based in <strong>Perrysburg</strong>, was founded <strong>by</strong> Hannah Turner and her parents<br />
Vic and Doris Turner. The mission of <strong>the</strong> non-profit organization is to “engage schools,<br />
churches, businesses, families and <strong>the</strong>ir children to make a difference in <strong>the</strong>ir community<br />
<strong>by</strong> collecting and donating socks to those in need.” Hannah’s Socks serves homeless<br />
and domestic violence shelters in <strong>the</strong> Midwest.<br />

Prizm seeks online votes<br />
for Careers in Creativity project<br />
many schools in northwest<br />
Ohio have cut arts education<br />
to one small session per<br />
week. The Inaugural Career’s<br />
Day was held in November of<br />
2011, and featured six workshops<br />
<strong>by</strong> successful professionals<br />
in <strong>the</strong> creative<br />
industries. Many high school<br />
students and lifelong learners<br />
selected three workshops to<br />
attend, and enjoyed a meal,<br />
technology demonstrations,<br />
networking opportunities, and<br />
a raffle give-away of art supplies,<br />
software, tools, and<br />
easels.<br />
This year PRIZM is asking<br />
area businesses and interested<br />
individuals to become<br />
involved in several ways.<br />
Sponsorships and transportation<br />
scholarships for area<br />
schools to bring students to<br />
<strong>the</strong> event will help more students<br />
to attend and take advantage<br />
of <strong>the</strong> event.<br />
Prizm also is hoping to establish<br />
a database of potential<br />
internships available with<br />
area businesses.<br />
