OwlSwap Closet

OwlSwap Closet is a resource that provides all KSU students, faculty, and staff with free access to professional attire for academic and employment opportunities as well as everyday clothing. Not only does it give everyone a chance to acquire new-to-you clothing, but it also encourages sustainable consumption.

The closet is made possible thanks to the generous support and donations from the KSU community. Along with the OwlSwap closet, we also provide professional wardrobe support Dress for Success Program. With our partnership with Career Planning, we help students become more prepared for work environments.

KSU students, faculty, and staff are welcome to shop online @owlswapcloset on Instagram, or visit us at our in-person closet locations.

Closet Locations:

Kennesaw Campus, Willingham Hall, Room 130
Marietta Campus, Joe Mack Wilson Student Center, Suite 187

 

 

 

 

 

Owls lacking access to resources can anonymously request access to clothing and other apparel items. Developed in partnership with CARE Services, Office of Victim Services, and the LGBTQ Resource Center, items are collected within the requested time-frame and brought to a caseworker who then delivers the items to a pre-determined pickup location.

On average, over 80lbs of textile waste per person, every year, ends up in landfills; however, by dropping textile items in OwlSwap’s bins you are not only helping people but helping the planet. Donations are sorted by the OwlSwap team and volunteers. We accept clean, gently-used articles of clothing. Items collected from the bins benefit the KSU community, and local non-profits — including Hope Thru Soap. 

Donation bin locations: Marietta (top), Kennesaw (bottom).
