- Available to current UW Seattle undergraduate and graduate students
Operating Hours:
Monday – Friday, 11:30am – 3:30pm by drop-in. Please note, during normal operating hours, we will allow only one person to shop the closet at a time so a wait-time may exist.
About the Items:
- Gently-used clothing items have been donated by UW staff, alumni, and employer partners
- We cannot guarantee that clothing has been washed or dry-cleaned prior to donation, or that small imperfections don’t exist
- The C&IC has intentionally procured a variety of items in a wide range of sizes and styles (while supplies last)
- Items include: Blazers, sweaters, blouses, shirts, dress pants, dresses, skirts, ties, belts, shoes, bags, and more

We also accept donations of gently-used professional clothing. Here are a few insights into our students:
- Most Closet visitors want to select items that align with current trends for young adults.
- Most need items that are slightly dressier and more modest than what they might have in their home closets, but they typically don’t want overly formal items.
- Many are on the smaller size. Sizes 0-6, XS, Small, 30, and 32 are always needed.
If your items align with what students are seeking, we welcome your donations between 9:00 and 5:00 Monday through Friday in room 134 of Mary Gates Hall on the UW-Seattle campus. We encourage you to check our website for any closures or adjusted hours prior to visiting, or you can call (206) 543-0535 or email askcic@uw.edu to confirm our hours on a given day.
If you have other items or sizes, we kindly request that you consider donating to an option such as Dress for Success, Seattle Children’s Bargain Boutiques, Goodwill, Salvation Army, Value Village, St Vincent de Paul, etc. Though we sincerely appreciate you thinking of Huskies first, we don’t have the staffing or space to accommodate donations that may not work for our students.
