*Note that the donation drive originally set for Nov. 25-26 has been canceled.*

InterVol, in conjunction with RIT graduate students enrolled in the media arts and technology MS program's Contemporary Media and Communications class, invites the community to contribute unused medical supplies and equipment. The drive will occur from noon-4 p.m. Nov. 18, 19, 25 and 26 in the Riedman Health Center parking lot (north entrance, 100 Kings Hwy S, Rochester, 14617).

In 2022, InterVol collected more than 100,000 pounds of donations, which was sorted and distributed to 12 countries and 134 local organizations. The students' goal for this Thanksgiving drive is to collect at least 500 pounds and raise $500 for shipping the supplies. Every item the drive collects helps save lives across the world and keeps these items out of landfills.

Direct contributions can also be made to the campaign.
