Collection Drive Policy

Student Organizations looking to host a collection drive must submit an Activity Registration for such. Departments looking to host a collection drive must submit a 14-days prior to the event date. Reservations are made on a first-come, first-served basis. Collection drive boxes placed without approval will be removed.

It is the Student Organization/Department’s responsibility to provide the collection drive box. The box must be labeled with the sponsoring Student Organization/Department’s name, the dates of collection, where the items are being donated, and what items are being accepted (i.e. clothing, non-perishable food, school supplies, etc.). Currency cannot be collected.

The responsible Student Organization/Department is encouraged to check the collection box frequently to empty the contents. The collection box must be removed from its location within two days of the reservation end date. Wilson Commons Student Activities is not responsible for theft of items placed in the collection box.
