The Good Stuff Campaign provides students with an opportunity to live out Loyola’s mission by donating their clothing, dishes, small appliances, and unopened food to local agencies. The people who are served by these agencies can benefit tremendously from your generosity! And, the program is particularly helpful to graduating seniors as they move out of the residence halls immediately after Commencement. Drop off sites for all students are located around campus during Exam Week and Senior Week and vans and trucks are available near dumpsters on graduation day. Volunteers are needed during Exam Week, Senior Week and on Graduation Day to collect, sort and deliver items. See below for more information about how to volunteer! Return to top of page

We need as many volunteers as we can get! Click here to sign up online. The last week in April up until the 16th of May (graduation day) will be key for having as many people help us out as possible! We'll need people to help organize, sort, and deliver items for the local agencies to take away. It's a great way to earn service hours, stay on campus during senior week, and contribute not only to the Loyola community but the Baltimore community as well! Thanks for asking!

It shouldn't take much time. Students from other years have said that they just got an extra box or bag and as they were packing their items, and when they found something to donate, they just put it in the designated box or bag. That's it. It won't add any time to your packing. And it’ll make your move out that much easier. Return to top of page
We hope to collect from off-campus residences in the Homeland neighborhood. But, if volunteers do not visit your apartment, please consider bringing your items to one of the drop-off stations. Please be considerate of local neighbors and do not leave donated items outside of your apartment. If you would like to donate but absolutely can’t bring your items to one of the collection stations, please contact the Center for Community Service and Justice (x2380) and we’ll try our best to help you. You may also schedule a donation pick-up through National Children's Center by calling 410-536-4205. Return to top of page
