Sock Out Poverty, Inc. has been in existence for five years. While on a blanket drive with her mom, Jackson noticed the homeless didn't have socks to keep them warm. Because of her passion to give back to the community and her fondness for socks, Sock Out Poverty was created.

To date, Princess has given out more than 10,000 pairs of new socks in the Houston, Beaumont, San Antonio, Dallas, Atlanta, California, Washington, DC, and Orlando, FL areas. Her goal is to go global and "Sock Out Poverty" all over the world.
