PAST EVENTS
We regularly host events and fundraisers to engage the Cornell community!
Threads of Hope Project
The Threads of Hope Project collects new and gently used shoes, clothing, and winter gear (gloves, hats, scarves, etc.) for all ages and sizes. Donations of reusable bags would also be appreciated. All donations directly help individuals and families in need in Ithaca/Tompkins County. Thank you for your generosity!
Donations can be dropped off during our weekly G-Body meetings in Morrill Hall Room 107 between 6-7 PM every Wednesday.
Village Fellowship Project
The Village Fellowship Project (VFP) is a partnership with Village at Ithaca, a non-profit organization that runs Village House, a transitional housing program for unhoused youth ages 18-24. We connect with residents of Village House, and work together to build a curated list of items based on diverse needs to assemble Strong Start Kits. The Strong Start Kits are made up of transitional housing items and day-to-day essentials.
We also connect with residents over shared community dinners.
We regularly host events and fundraisers to engage the Cornell community!
Our members packed menstrual products for donation to Serenity House, operated by St. John’s Community Services in Ithaca.
Splash! at Cornell Fall 2025 is an immersive day on Cornell’s campus where students in grades 7–12 explore subjects driven by curiosity and passion. Members of our Advocacy & Education Committee led a session exploring topics such as how urban environments and government policies influence patterns of homelessness.
We accepted unopened/unused or gently used items, including: tops, bottoms, jackets, sweaters, shoes, and belts. Items were only available for trade with pieces from our inventory if participants brought one of the listed items. All remaining clothing from the event were donated to The Village at Ithaca.
