Hi friends and supporters! In just the first ten days or so of fundraising, we were able to raise over $2,600 dollars, which amounts to 52% of our goal! Please continue to share our page and consider making a donation, if you have not, so that we can reach our goal. This money is will help us purchase about 5 suits, 8 shirts, and 20 ties with still hundreds of dollars leftover. We are so thankful for all the giving so far and look forward to stocking the closet with even more clothes for the Northwestern community to utilize. We are making great strides towards ensuring that students of all backgrounds at NU are able to dress appropriately for formal occasions. You guys rock! Keep up the good work! 

Updated Goal!

April 28, 2015

We hit our goal of $5000! Thank you SO much for your support! Thanks to your support, we can now buy over 10 suits, 15 shirts, and 15 ties. We are now  looking to raise an additional $1000 with 10 days left to go! This additional money would help students even further by allowing us to purchase items such as briefcases, portfolios and shoes, that can be used along with the suits, ties, shirts, etc. to further prepare students the best way possible for their interviews, information sessions and networking events. Our original plan was to purchase solely the clothing necessary but with the support that we have received recently, we can now help students further by offering them these additional resources too.

Thank you for your help and please spread the word to those you think would be interested in supporting our project. Thank you again!

Thank You!

We just wanted to take a moment to thank all of our donors! The NU Threads Catalyzer campaign raised $5,468, taking us to 109% of our original goal of $5,000!

The impact that these donations can together have is incredible. We can now afford to stock the NU Threads closet with over 11 suits, 15 shirts, and 15 ties - with some additional resources to purchase portfolios and briefcases to rent out too!

Again, thank you to all of our donors for your contributions! Your generosity will truly help Northwestern students take advantage of the many opportunities that we encounter here on campus!
