GVSU campus donation project focuses on reusing student items

Several departments at Grand Valley State University are organizing a new donation project that encourages students to donate their usable items to charity when they move out of their living centers at the end of the academic year.

Facilities Services will place donations boxes, beginning April 18, in each living center or apartment complex to collect clothing, non-perishable foods, household items and small appliances. The collection will run through May 3.

Donations will go to the following Grand Rapids area participating agencies: Holland Rescue Mission, Mel Trotter Ministries, Salvation Army and His House.

Departments involved in planning the project are Facilities Services, Housing, Multicultural Affairs and the Women's Center.
