Clothesline

Why are there t-shirts hanging outside the Hub?

Clothesline is a grassroots project designed to give victims of domestic violence a voice. Donated t-shirts were given to these women as a positive way to express their emotions, while increasing awareness at the same time.

The project on DePauw's campus is done in correlation with Co-Motion, a fundraising competition between Wabash and DePauw to raise money for domestic violence.

If you would like more information about the project, or would like to make a donation, please contact Katherine Rappaport.
