The University of Oregon Career Center and the UO Student Sustainability Center are asking faculty and staff to help Ducks dress for success by donating interview-ready clothing for the upcoming Career Closet Pop-Up on Nov. 19.
Donation bins are available now through Nov. 17 at several campus locations:
- University Career Center: Tykeson Hall, Garden Level 050
- Student Sustainability Center: EMU Room 005
- Ford Alumni Center: UOAA Office, first floor, 1720 E. 13th Ave.
- Lillis Business Complex: Main entrance
Faculty and staff can drop off new or gently used business casual and professional items, including blazers, slacks, suits, dresses, button-ups, skirts, ties, belts and more—anything suitable for a job interview.
Those interested in organizing a mini-drive at their workplace in the Eugene-Springfield area can email career@uoregon.edu to arrange a pickup before Nov. 17.
Volunteers are also needed to help sort donations and staff the pop-up event on Nov. 19. To sign up or learn more, email career@uoregon.edu.
Those who prefer to give financially can visit tinyurl.com/UOGive, select “I want to give to other,” and write in Career Center fund (#4359) with “Clothing” in the comments. Donations will help support additional resources to ensure the event’s success.
