Description

Summertime is coming soon! And with the hotter weather, there is a need for warm weather clothes. The non-profit Organization, HelpOki, are in in desperate need of summer clothing. The will donate all items and proceeds to families in need, orphanages, shelter or victims of domestic violence.

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! We will be hosting a Summer Clothes Drive from Monday - Friday (February 15th-19th, 2021).

Boxes to collect clothes will be set up at Recreational Services Office, Main entrance and Lab 4 entrance from 9 am to 5 pm throughout the week.

Look for the box with the POWER Club and Recreation Services logos! Any clothes that do not have rips, tears, holes, or stains, can be donated (clothes for all ages and of sizes). The clothes must be in good shape and washed. Please focus mostly on Summer Clothes!

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

Thank you for your continued support!
