Blessed Carlo Acutis was an Italian teenager born in 1991 who was known for his deep Catholic faith and his passion for computer programming. He devoted much of his short life to spreading the message of the Eucharist through his many acts of charity and through his website, which he designed himself. Carlo was diagnosed with leukemia at age 15 and offered his sufferings up to God, continuing to attend Mass and pray until his death in 2006. He was beatified by the Catholic Church in 2020 and is considered a model of holiness for young people today. Our sock features his quote “Not me, but God,” written in binary code (a coding system used for computers) as a reference to his computer programming background.
