Grateful Garment Project
Service is a key component of Title IX and REPS work on campus. This year, we are partnering with the Grateful Garment Project to provide resources to survivors of sexual assault and intimate partner violence. Please email kgarry@usfca.edu if you wish to join this work. We are aiming to donate over 25 Dignity Kits this year in honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Take Back the Night.
Kits are due by the first week of May. You can drop off a Dignity Kit at the University Center 5th floor circulation desk.

Dignity Kits
Dignity kits will be going to survivors-in-need impacted by sexual violence. The Grateful Garment Project partners with agencies including but not limited to: Medical SART facilities, Group Homes and Youth Shelters, and County Education.
How to make a Dignity Kit:
- Items will be contained in a storage bag (gallon or larger). The size of storage bag will depend on the size of the items used for a Dignity Kit. (Tips: roll garments with tape or a rubberband for compact packaging!) Please note: items must be new, toothbrushes must be packaged, and do not include money or personal notes).
