Winter Coat Donation Drive

Dear UIC Community,
As the colder months approach, Little Sparks and WLRC are putting out a call for winter coats and accessories to support the children of UIC parenting students. Many families on campus face extra challenges in preparing for the season, and your generosity can make a big difference!

We are seeking donations of new or gently used:

• Winter coats (ages 8-10, kids' S - L)
• Hat and mitten/glove sets (handmade is also welcome!)
• Infant snowsuits (Newborn - 24 months)
• Snow pants (kids 2/XS - 10/L)

Our goal is to collect 50 items to help keep our student-parents’ children warm, comfortable, and confident this winter.

Drop-off:
Women’s Leadership and Resource Center (WLRC)
1700 Student Services Building, 1200 W. Harrison
10 am - 4 pm, Monday - Friday

Collection Period: Now through November 30

Volunteers Wanted:

If you’re interested in volunteering, please sign up or contact Melinda Young at mmcghe2@uic.edu to confirm your availability.

Your contribution will help lighten the load and bring warmth to UIC student families this winter season.

Thank you for supporting our UIC parenting community!  For questions, contact Melinda Young at mmcghe@uic.edu.
