What to Donate

Hygiene Supplies: 

In addition to separating crushable items between donation bags, please limit bag weight to 15 lb. or less.

No Household Items

Do not donate household items to CTC's donation drive (e.g. clothes, shoes, binders, stuffed animals, and kitchen pans). Our monthly donation site, Keystone Services, will not accept household items, in which they will be thrown away. You can donate household items at Goodwill or Freecycle, not CTC.

Volunteer Opportunity

We are currently looking for volunteers to help continue the drives. If you (or a team of volunteers) want to continue the drives for months moving forward, please contact Lindy at community@umnctc.org!


Start your own group or event —it's easy, and we're here to help!

This event, like the majority of CTC's events and groups, is made possible by one or more resident volunteers. 

Do you have an idea of an activity or event for our community? Or want to teach or learn a new skill or hobby or aspect of life? Do you want to help volunteer to bring your or other's ideas into fruition? Email CTC's Community Outreach Manager and/or join CTC's Programs Committee at our next meeting to brainstorm and discuss ideas!
