Sock Monkey Ministry
The Sock Monkey Ministry provides stuffed sock monkeys to children in group homes, orphanages, institutional quarters and shelters around the United States. CUMC has sent thousands of sock monkeys throughout the United States. Volunteers are always needed in this mission. Opportunities available include tracing patterns on the socks, machine sewing the bodies, stuffing the monkeys, and hand sewing the monkeys together. Shipments are then sent to organizations who have requested sock monkeys. Sock Monkeys is a selection in the Gifts Unto Others catalog.

Why We Make Sock Monkeys...
When Stacy and Roland lost their home to Hurricane Rita, our sock monkey volunteers rode to the rescue!
