Professional wear for Clark students sought

For a college graduate, professional-looking duds are important to interviews and new jobs, but buying that kind of clothing may be too costly. Clark College Career Services seeks new or gently used, workplace-appropriate clothing for its 12th annual Career Clothing Closet, set for April 21 and 22.

Last year, more than 700 Clark College students got professional clothing from the closet. Donations can be dropped off at Career, located in room PUB 002 on the ground level of the Penguin Union Building at 1933 Fort Vancouver Way. Hours are 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Thursday, or 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Friday. Although donations are accepted year-round, Career Services looks to gather more donations in the spring before the annual career fair and graduation.

Donations are tax-deductible and receipts will be provided.

For more information, contact Sharon Orr at 360-992-2517 or sorr@clark.edu.
