PTOS and WorkLife to Sponsor Annual Fall Cleaning Collection Drive Wednesday, November 4th:

It's that time of year when many of us start to do some Fall cleaning.

The USPTO’s Worklife Team and the Patent and Trademark Office Society will host the Annual Fall Cleaning drive to collect furniture, household items, clothing, animal items, nonperishable food items, and eye glasses for various charities.

Items will be accepted on Wednesday, November 4th, outside the south entrance of the Madison Building, along Eisenhower Avenue, from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. (for multiple item drop-off, please drive up and volunteers will help you unload your vehicle).

Donations of goods will be accepted on behalf of the following non-profit organizations.

• The Salvation Army

• Animal Welfare League of Alexandria

• Arlington Food Assistance Center

• One Sight by Lens Crafters

Representatives from these local charities will be on hand to accept your donations and supply receipts.
