Winter Clothing Drive

United Protestant Campus Ministries ("UPCaM") is doing a winter clothing drive now through December 8th for cold college students in need. Please share any gently used winter coats, boots, gloves and hats you might have.

UPCaM provides a progressive Christian space for students primarily at CWRU and CSU for worship, community, social justice and personal growth. Many of our students, and the wider campus community, are from the south or abroad and have nothing to wear as the days get colder — anything you can offer is much appreciated! Questions? Interested in getting more involved? Contact Katie Berger

Non-Perishable Food Donations
Bethany continually collects nonperishable food items which are donated to local food pantries. The food pantry is working on curating holiday dinners for their clients. They are asking for all the trimmings for Thanksgiving and Christmas – stuffing, cranberry sauce, corn, green beans, etc. Of course, as always, all donations of food and hygiene products are needed and appreciated.

Socks
Socks are the number one requested clothing item at Homeless Shelters. Bethany is working with the Community West Socks+ program to collect new socks to be donated to local homeless shelters. You will find the donation box in the Welcoming Room.
