It took your 30 weeks to move into your room; now you have 2 weeks to move-out! Donation bins are being placed on the ground floor of your hall this week. Items accepted for donation include:

  • Food that is unopened and non-perishable (please place in bag provided grocery bags)
  • Toiletries and personal hygiene products (please place in bag provided grocery bags)
  • Dry clothing, bedding and towels
  • Household items like décor, dishes, lamps, electronics, etc.
  • Broken electronics, CDs/DVDs and ink cartridges (to be recycled)
  • Furniture, bicycles and loft bed kit wood (place outside on the ground next to your dumpster)
