Do you have extra coats that are cluttering up your closet? The HSCA is putting on a winter clothing drive where those extra coats will go to someone in need! If you don’t have any clothing you can always donate your time. To run this drive the HSCA needs some important volunteer positions filled! These positions consist of “location checkers” who are in charge of going to one box location about once a week to collect clothes if the boxes are full! There will be locations on and off-campus and the collected clothes will be stored by the HSCA.
