Refugee Winter Clothing Drive:

The Graduate Student Advisory Council is proud to host an important community service event Friday, December 7th from 4pm to 7pm: The Refugee Winter Clothing Drive. This year, GSAC is partnering with Loyola Refugee Outreach, a student-run organization that provides aid to Refugees throughout the Chicago area. This event will be held in Galvin Auditorium, and refreshments will be provided. Please bring any new or gently used coats, hats, gloves, scarves, or boots. No donation is too big or too small. If you look through your closet and only find an old fleece worn to pieces- not to worry. Monetary donations are very welcome. We hope that you can support this important cause!
Please do not hesitate to email Caitlin Murray at cmurray3@luc.edu with any questions.
