Bucky’s Closet: Modeling the Power of a Circular Economy

Can mindful shopping spark systemic change? At Bucky’s Closet, we know it can.

Since Bucky’s Closet opened its doors in Fall 2024, students rehomed 7,500+ lbs of clothing, offsetting enough energy to power an average home for 14 years. As a model for a circular economy at SCU, this student-run thrift shop provides free professional clothing and essentials, diverting waste while cultivating a culture of reuse. Your gift to Bucky’s Closet directly funds student wages and shop operations, allowing us to expand access and ensure this sustainable alternative to "throwaway fashion" remains accessible to the entire Bronco community.
