The Career Center is collecting new and gently used professional clothing for "UMBC Suits You" as part of Career Month.

Students will have the opportunity to learn about dressing professionally and then be able to select one free outfit to use for job interviews, career fairs, networking opportunities and much more.. We are asking staff, faculty, alumni, and affiliates to donate new and gently used professional attire at collection bins around campus from February 17th - February 28th.

Starting February 17th, professional clothing can be dropped off at the following on-campus locations:

Items that will be accepted: Pant suits, skirt suits, dress pants, dresses, skirts, blazers, shell tops, button-up shirts, blouses, ties, and dress belts.

Items that will NOT be accepted: Jewelry, handbags, shoes, and general accessories.

All items should be in good condition, and appropriate for interaction with potential employers and professional contacts. Please be selective! Clothing that is in poor condition, stained, or out of style won’t help our students make a good first impression. All clothing will be professionally cleaned before being offered to students.

Clothing donations will be used to benefit UMBC students and will not be considered gifts-in-kind or donations to UMBC. Clothing donations are not tax deductible. Any leftover clothing will be donated to local nonprofits.

Special thanks to T. Rowe Price for partnering with us on this endeavor.

Any questions or concerns about this project can be addressed to Stephanie Taylor Okoukoni, staylor18@umbc.edu, 5-3975, or Jeremiah Sawyer, jsawyer2@umbc.edu, 5-2391.

***Students, be on the lookout for more information about the UMBC Suits You Clothing Closet occurring on April 1 & 2, 2025, when you can pick up a FREE professional outfit.**
