  • Winter Coat Drive for International Students

     

    Dear Friends and Colleagues, 

     

    As the cold weather approaches, we want to do our part in helping international students who may be unprepared for the cold Connecticut weather this winter season. For the past several years we have organized a winter clothing drive for international students at CISS and as December approaches, we need your help for the 2024/2025 CISS Winter Coat Drive.  

     

    Donate to our winter coat drive by bringing in your cleaned, gently used adult winter coats. We are accepting coats, fleece jackets/pullovers and sweatshirts of any size and color. Additionally, we are collecting new or gently used hats, gloves, scarves, mittens, and ear muffs.

     

    Drop off your donations now through the end of the semester at the Center for International Students and Scholars (CISS) – 2019 Hillside Road (building in-between McMahon Hall and UConn Bookstore). Please come to the front desk area to drop off your items.

     

    Your participation is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your generosity! 

     

    Warm Regards, 

    CISS Team
