Clothing Drive - October 12th - 16th 2020

If you have some clothes in your closet that you don't wear anymore, and also would like to give them a second life, don't miss the clothing drive!

Boxes to collect clothes will be set up at Main entrance and lab 4 entrance from Monday to Friday (12th - 16th October, 2020).

Look for the box with the POWER Club and Recreation Services logos!
The clothes must be in good shape and washed.

Any clothes that do not have rips, tears, holes, or stains, can be donated (clothes for all ages and of sizes).

(following things cannot be accepted as donation: carpets, comforters, pillows, luggages/suitcases, beddings)

All the collected clothes will be donated to HelpOki, which is an NPO that will redistribute them to Okinawan people in need.

Thank you for your help!
