Happy Earth Month, Patriots! Get involved in the many events happening around Mason this month and learn about how we can all be more sustainable. Check out the event calendar for more details.
Patriot Packout
Patriot Packout (PPO), Mason’s annual sustainable move-out initiative, is scheduled from April 15 – May 10. Like-new and gently used donations are collected at the Fairfax Campus, Science and Technology Campus, and the Smithsonian-Mason School of Conservation.
Donations are redistributed to Mason Patriots and local community members, preventing useful items from ending up in the trash. PPO 2024’s donations support the Patriot Pantry, Trans Clothing Closet, Art Supply Sharing Closet, First Gen+ Center, Parking and Transportation’s bike programs, and Food For Others, among others. Visit the PPO webpage for a list of accepted donations, campus donation locations, and volunteer opportunities.
