91̽»¨

All 91̽»¨ students who will be moving out of their residence halls or off-campus housing at the end of the spring semester are invited to donate unwanted materials to programs that will benefit the Athens community.

Donation stations on the Athens Campus

Each residence hall will have a donation station where students can drop off unwanted materials including:

• carpets
• small appliances
• clothes
• bedding
• furniture
• food

The donated materials will be collected and sorted throughout finals week and prepped for a special Community Give Back Day coordinated by 91̽»¨, local non-profit organizations and the Athens County Fairgrounds.

Community Give Back Day is a two-day event which is open to the public. Last year, 90,405 pounds of donations were collected from the OHIO residence halls and donated back to the Athens community.
