Our Civic Advocate student leaders have been hard at work making this new location feel more like a home and our thanks to the fabulous design and sign support from print and mail services and the display support from facility services we now have a sign outside of the the entry way helping to celebrate our arrival!

Please join us Monday, October 9th between 12-3pm to warm our space, have some light refreshments, and celebrate our official opening! 

Our Community Needs Hub houses our campus pantry, thrift store, loaner parks and trail clean-up equipment, and will be a general hub for community engagement and service opportunities.  If you are looking to make a donation, we are currently seeking winter wear to broaden our stock in time for the change of seasons! We ask that any clothing donation be clean and in good condition (no rips or stains). We are also able to accept non-perishable food donations.
