Donate Clothing to our Partner Offices

Our campus has two main options for clothing assistance. One for everyday wear & career-focused clothing.

The Clothes Closet, operated by the Office of Sustainability, is designed to help alleviate two significant issues: massive waste generated annually by discarded clothing and students, faculty, and staff unable to meet their basic needs. Visit their website for information on donations.

The Career Closet, operated by the Career Center, has a focus on providing students with free professional clothing and up to one complete professional outfit per academic year.  This can assist with interviews, job fairs, etc. Visit their website for information on donations.
