4…Move Out Pitch In

It's very simple.  There are drop locations at many places on College Hill, including:

*Many WSU Residence Halls (Check the lobbies of individual buildings for details)
*The parking lot of St. James Episcopal Church on Stadium Way
*The parking lot of the Congregational Church on Campus/Opal Streets
*The WSU Yellow Parking Lot next to the President's House

Items such as furniture, clothes, school supplies, cinder blocks, bedding, unopened non-perishable food and more are accepted.  No trash or computers!

Items will be collected between April 23rd and May 11th

This community service project is sponsored by Pullman Disposal, the Center for Civic Engagement, Facilities Operations, Capitol Planning and Development, the City of Pullman, Palouse
Industries, St. James Episcopal, Deary Adventist Community Services, and Ritzville Pet Rescue.
