Cougar Closet Clothing Drive Ends May 13

The Academic Success & Career Center is hosting a Cougar Closet Clothing Drive.

The Cougar Closet is a WSU student resource that provides access to free, gently used professional clothing. Earlier this spring, we had a line of students eager to use the Cougar Closet in preparation for the Spring Career Expo and related events. If you have professional clothing (slacks, button-down shirts, blouses, ties, suits, etc.) you are planning to donate, please consider donating to the Cougar Closet. Male/men’s clothing options are most in need after this season, but we take all professional dress, from heels to 2-piece suits.

You can drop off donations at one of three locations:

  • The ASCC, Lighty Student Services, room 180
  • Drop-box in the Carson Center, Todd 101
  • Drop-box at Dana Hall 138
