Career Services Center: WWU Career Closet
The Impact of the Career Closet...

Support the WWU Career Closet this Give Day – April 24th! 

(Early giving runs April 17–23 and support is welcome all year long!) 

Each year, hundreds of students and alumni rely on the WWU Career Closet for free, professional attire, helping them feel confident and prepared for interviews, career fairs, conferences, and other key career moments. 

Hear what it means to them: 

 "I am very thankful that WWU has resources such as the Career Closet. I was able to find clean and timeless professional clothing that I can use for any professional setting at no extra cost to me."  

 "Thanks to the Career Closet, I was able to get myself professional attire. I wore it for interviews, and career fairs which boosted my confidence. In the future, whenever I have the opportunity, I hope to donate, so others can feel more comfortable and confident when presenting themselves." 

Here’s how YOU can help: 

Donate gently used or new professional clothing and accessories. Email the Career Services Center at careers@wwu.edu to schedule your drop-off. Tax receipts are available! 

NEW! In partnership with other campus departments - we've launched a WWU Graduation Gown Donation Program! If you're an alum of WWU consider donating your cap, gown and/or stole to support upcoming graduates. We are seeking donations for the June 2025 Ceremony! Learn more here

Spread the word! Share these resources with your community to support fellow Vikings and boost donations for the Career Closet & Commencement Gown programs. 

Make a financial gift to the Career Closet Fund on Give Day. Your contribution helps us stock in-demand items and expand mobile Career Closets for broader access.
