Food and Clothing Drives

Fordham's Community Service Program and Campus Ministry are once again sponsoring the annual Food and Coat drives to benefit the local community partners in the Bronx and Manhattan. Community-based organizations such as Part of the Solution (POTS), Concourse House, National Student Partnerships (NSP) and Cathedral Community Cares of St. John the Divine will benefit greatly from your generous support.

Thanksgiving Food Drive - November 10 through 21
Local food pantries are struggling to meet the needs of their clients, particularly during the holiday season. If you would prefer to make a monetary donation, please make checks out to "Campus Ministry."

Non-perishable food items and checks may be brought to:
ROSE HILL: McGinley Center 101 or 102
LINCOLN CENTER: Lowenstein 217


Winter Clothing Drive - December 1 through 19
As the weather gets colder, we will begin to collect warm winter clothing in good condition to be distributed through our community partners. If you would prefer to make a monetary donation, please make checks out to "Campus Ministry."

Coats, sweatshirts, scarves, gloves, sweaters, and socks, as well as checks may be brought to:
ROSE HILL: McGinley Center 102
LINCOLN CENTER: Lowenstein Plaza (bins at the top of the escalator)
