“Are You Really Going to Wear That?”

As we all know the academic year is coming to an end, and here at Phi Delta Epsilon we have one simple question to ask you:

Are you really going to wear that????

If the answer is no, then why not give it to somebody who will!
Phi Delta Epsilon is organising the first ever MUG clothes drive!!! So whether you are preparing to graduate and you can’t bring all your stuff, or simply have too little space in your wardrobe why not donate it to someone who is truly in need.

At our clothes drive we will be collecting:
-Used clothes & shoes: that is capable of been re-worn
-Used furniture: which is still standing!!?
-Used electronics: that still work!
So if you are thinking of dumping any of these items…please don’t!! Instead donate them to somebody who could really use them.
We have teamed up with ‘Caritas International Charity’ who will be taking ALL of your donations and redistributing them to local people who really do need help.

The clothes drive will take place in Medyk Room 1 on Saturday the 26th & Sunday the 27th of May from 10:00 – 17:00. We will have members there at these times to collect your items.
If you have any further questions please feel free to email us at phide@gumed.edu.pl

Hopefully see you there!
