UWinnipeg Residents' Giveaway
(Formerly the McFeetors Hall Residents' Giveaway)
When moving out of dorms and apartments, students often have items that can still be used by other people in the community.
The Campus Sustainability Office, in partnership with Campus Living hosts a giveaway once per year in April. We collect household items, school supplies, and other reusable goods from UWinnipeg students who are moving out of residence to giveaway to community members in need.
NOTE: Throughout the year, there are many thrift stores throughout Winnipeg who will happily accept donations of clothing, furniture, and household items, and are great sources of needed supplies to community members. Some will also provide pick up or delivery services of larger items.
In 2023 The CSO diverted 225 kilograms(kgs) of waste from the landfill through this initiative.
