What it is:
It’s a winter clothing drive organized by International Student & Scholar Services (ISSS) to benefit new international and U.S. students (especially those who have never lived in a cold climate) who need warm winter clothes.
What we’re looking for:
We seek “like-new” or “gently-used” winter clothing. In particular, we’re looking for winter coats, jackets, hats, mittens/gloves, scarves, and footwear/boots in good condition that would appeal to college students.
(Note: This year due to space limitations, we will focus on WINTER clothing/gear, especially coats, hats, and adult-size gloves and mittens. In the past, we received many other types of every day clothing that we encourage you to donate to reuse shops in town, which we promote to students.)
Where to bring your donations:
Collection boxes can be found in the following locations from October 4-18, 2018:
- McCullough Student Center– by the Box Office.
- Service Building/ISSS Office– In the first floor entryway, by the stairs that go up to ISSS.
When it is:
We collect items from October 4-18, 2018. The Winter Clothing Closet will be on Friday, October 19, where items are given to students for free.
Questions? Please contact ISSS at isss@middlebury.edu or by phone at 802-443-5858.
Thank you in advance for your contributions, which will help many new students stay warm and cozy this winter.
