The CEES clothing drive ended Monday. Over 400 pounds of gently used clothing was collected from donation boxes placed at various sites around IUPUI’s campus!
By facilitating the clothing donations, we helped make sure clothes ended up in hands that need them rather than in a landfill and encouraged “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” thinking amongst IUPUI faculty, staff, and students during Earth Day week. Shown here is Robert Newpoert of the Catholic Charities’ Refugee Program accepting CEES’ donation. You can read more about the work Robert and his colleagues are doing for refugees in Indianapolis here.
CEES is represented by communications intern Whitney Dyer and education/outreach intern Robert Lugg. Thank you to all who donated and hosted donation boxes!
