UK Collects More Than 15,000 Pounds of Donations During Move Out

LEXINGTON, Ky. (May 26, 2017) — The University of Kentucky is donating more than 15,000 pounds of donations, nonperishable food and household items, as well as bicycles, to the Lexington Women's Hope Center. The items were collected through Give-and-Go Donation Stations placed in 18 residence halls and 19 fraternity and sorority houses by UK Campus Housing and UK Recycling during move out.

"This is a program that continues to grow every year, and we appreciate students have been willing to donate instead of throwing away," said Esther Moberly, recycling coordinator.
