About the Items

  • Gently-used clothing items have been donated by Lehman staff, alumni, and employer partners
  • We cannot guarantee that clothing has been washed or dry-cleaned prior to donation, or that small imperfections don’t exist
  • Items include: Blazers, sweaters, blouses, shirts, dress pants, dresses, skirts, ties, belts, shoes, bags, and more

 

Donations

We accept donations of gently-used professional clothing. Here are a few insights to help you make the greatest impact.

  • We always need men’s clothing, shoes, belts, and ties
  • Students want items that align with current trends for young adults
  • Most need items that are slightly dressier and more modest than what they might have in their home closets
  • Overly formal or dressy items do not attract much interest
  • Please do not donate clothing that is very dirty or worn.
