Thrift Drive Donations!

November 6th, 2025

What is it? We are collecting lightly used clothes to create a thrift shop for our students. Each student who shows up at the Fashion Show on November 28 will be able to select one free item from our Thrift Drive.

Why are we doing it? We know students have a tight budget from paying for food, tuition, supplies, and more. To help be sustainable and affordable we wanted to create a Thrift Shop to help lessen the burden.

When is the Thrift Shop? It will be open on Friday, November 28 during the duration of the Fashion Show.

What can you donate?

  • Shirts
  • Sweaters
  • Pants
  • Jackets/parkas
  • Shoes
  • Scarfs
  • Hats/Toques
  • Accessories: belts, rings, bracelets
  • DON’T DONATE: undergarments, earrings, used socks

Bin Locations: The Hive and the UWSA General Main Office

A student-led fashion show that playfully explores how people imagine university students dress based on their major versus how they actually do. Using pop culture characters to represent “expectations” and real students to show “reality,” this event will highlight the diversity, and true personality of our campus. By blending entertainment, inclusivity, and creativity, the show will bring students together and celebrate the individuality that makes our university unique.
