Welcome back, CSE! We know this quarter will challenge you academically, so the Student Advisory Council invites you to take part in a feel-good event that will benefit a part of our local community who would truly appreciate your help.
The SAC will be hosting a donation drive to benefit Mary’s Place, an inclusive environment which provides shelter and services to support women, children, and families on their journey out of homelessness.
Why donate? Mary’s Place puts it simply: because no one’s child should sleep outside.
How can you help? We are looking for all types of essential items, including:
Toiletries – shampoo and conditioner, toothpaste and toothbrushes, deodorant, feminine hygiene products, soap, lip balm, hair brushes and combs, pain relievers, band aids
Baby – diapers in larger sizes (4, 5, 6), baby wipes
Food – oatmeal packets, boxes of cereal, individually packaged kids snacks
Clothing – women, men, children and infant clothing, bras and underwear
Art Supplies
Blankets
You can also find this list on our posters located throughout the CSE and CSE2 buildings.
Bring your items for donation to the CSE2 Ugrad Commons or to the ACM Lounge from 9-5 between now through April 29.
The SAC knows you are all doing great things as CSE students, so we invite you to take this opportunity to do something amazing for your community!

What is the SAC? We are a CSE student-run organization and our aim is to foster a positive learning environment for our peers by hosting events and discussion forums. We use input from you, the students, to guide our conversations with staff and faculty which ultimately lead to improvements in the school.
