In 2022, Lafayette students donated over 20,000 pounds of gently used clothing, books, and dorm goods at the end of the Spring semester. 48 students, faculty and staff volunteered to collect and sort donations.  Then, the donations were shared with local non-profit organizations, through a sale to the community, and incorporated into an on-campus thrift store.
