Please call our office at 618.453.2391 to ask for unloading assistance. We will be glad to send someone out curbside to assist. Of course, you are always welcome to visit us and the closet anytime.
Financial Donations
Maintaining the care of items donated until selected by a deserving student can become costly over time. Any assistance from employers to help maintain the closet is welcome. If you would like to contribute to the closet financially, please contact nicole.wood@siu.edu or 618.453.2391.
