On May 4th, 2023, during the 2023 ASCE Orange County Annual Awards Night at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum, the ASCE OC YMF Community Outreach Committee held a Professional Clothing Drive. Over 200 pieces of professional clothing were donated by the attendees. The items were donated to Clothes the Deal (CTD), a clothing charity in Downey, California.
