Help Emerson help others this holiday season by donating to a number of food, clothes, and gift drives.

Donate non-perishable food items to benefit the Greater Boston Food Bank from now until Wednesday, December 18, at the Campus Center Food Drive, which is accepting donations at the Mutchnick Campus Center in Piano Row and on the 10^th floor of the Walker Building, at the Elma Lewis Center.

Also at the Elma Lewis Center, you can drop off backpacks, toiletries, seasonal clothing, or gift cards (between $5 and $25) to stores like CVS and Walgreens to benefit Bridge Over Troubled Waters. This drive is being held in conjunction with EAGLE (Emerson’s Alliance for Gays, Lesbians, and Everyone.)

The Emerson College Police Department is holding its annual Toys for Tots holiday gift drive. Children’s toys can be dropped off at the police department, which is located in the Little Building, facing Tremont Street.
