MCC Student Life

Today was all about slowing down, getting creative, and finding a little calm on campus! 🍂✨

At Make & Take: Calm & Cozy, students had the chance to relax and recharge while making their own candles, keychains, zen gardens, and bookmarks. And of course, no cozy fall event would be complete without a caramel apple bar! 🍎

Thanks to everyone who stopped by, got crafty, and took a little time for themselves.

🍂 Take a break, get crafty, and get cozy! Join us for Make & Take: Calm & Cozy on October 8 in the Student Center Pit.

Create something cozy, enjoy seasonal refreshments, and take some time to relax and recharge. 🧡

Volunteers are still needed for MCC’s Fall Clothing Collection & Sorting Event!

MCC is partnering with the Pass Along Project to collect and sort clothing for children entering foster care. The Pass Along Project provides “nearly new” clothing bundles to children as they enter foster care, helping ensure they have clothing and essentials when they need them most.

The event takes place October 2–3, with the big volunteer sorting day on Saturday, October 3, and we still need lots of helping hands!

👕 Volunteers will help sort donated clothing and shoes for infants through teens. MCC community members can also donate clean, gently used clothing and shoes during the week leading up to the event, as well as new socks, pajamas and underwear.

📅 October 2–3
🤝 Saturday, October 3: Main Volunteer Day
📍 MCC

Whether you can volunteer for a shift or have clothing to donate, your support can help provide a child entering foster care with a clothing bundle they can use and feel good about receiving.

Help us give these donations a second life and support New Hampshire children when they need it most. ❤️
