The University chapter of the Golden Key International Honor Society is hosting a clothing drive for local charities today and Wednesday in the EMU.
The academic honor society is encouraging students to bring hats, jackets, gloves, sweaters, long-sleeved shirts, pants and bedding, including blankets and sheets.
“There are so many ways that students can benefit the community. We are trying to assist homeless and low-income people right now when it’s needed the most,” Golden Key-Oregon Chapter Secretary Jennifer Surdyk said in a press release.
The society will donate the clothing to the Eugene Mission, the White Bird Clinic, Looking Glass Youth and Family Services and Womenspace Domestic Violence Services.
The society will have a table for donations in the EMU’s main lobby from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today and from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday.
