Socks Full of Joy: Stockton Teen Brightens Seniors’ Holidays Across the U.S.



Elle Gianelli, a 17-year-old from Stockton, has embarked on a heartwarming mission to bring cheer to nursing home residents during the holiday season. She is sending her signature 'Silly Socks' to seniors across the country, already reaching 92 facilities in 48 states. Gianelli's initiative is driven by her understanding that seniors are often forgotten during holidays, and she wants to show them they are cared for. To support her project, she is also raising funds on GoFundMe, aiming to spread joy and color to all 50 states​​.
