Clothes and community service

Yesterday was the 5th Annual The Big Event: A Saluki Day of Service, the largest one-day, student-run service project in the history of SIU Carbondale. This year several students volunteered their Saturday to assist our very own Sister Gay B*tch Milkshake with her amazing Novice project and helped organize all the clothes donated over the last few months for the Rainbow Cafe Clothing Closet.


All the remaining clothes that were not selected will now find their ways to such events as Transition Your Closet that Sister Mothra Stewart is working as well as Rainbow Cafe's yard sale happening in May and House of Hope to be sold in their thrift store.


Our first Novice project officially finished! Thank you so much to the students who worked with us today, and to our community for being so generous with their gently used items!
