Muscogee Nation Youth Services is holding a Socktober Drive to help people experiencing homelessness in Okmulgee County. They're accepting items such as new socks, hats, and gloves at the Muscogee Youth Services office on North Miami Avenue until the end of October.

All the collected donations will be donated to the Okmulgee County homeless shelter.

Krystle Hilton works at the Okmulgee County homeless shelter. She said she knew what it's like living on the streets as the months get colder.

"When it's cold, you don't have something that you needed I've been through that before," said Hilton.

Mia Powell with the Muscogee Nation Youth Council said she's trying to help people who were in Hilton's position.

"Our main focus is really to target those people who are in need," said Powell.
