Students are hosting a (winter) clothing drive in collaboration with Roosevelt’s BSU, ALAS, RU Proud, and RU Generation Action. We encourage you to donate winter items but will also be accepting other types of clothing as well. This is a great opportunity to go through your closets and do some Spring cleaning in order to benefit both the environment and Chicago’s queer Black and Brown populations. Below you’ll find more info about the drive.
When: March 14-March 21
Where to drop: AUD/WB Entrances, WB 2nd Floor Cafeteria, WB 14th Floor Res Halls, AUD 2nd Floor Fainman Lounge, AUD 10th Floor Library, and AUD 526 Sust Office
