Community
Involvement
The process of finding employment
can be daunting, but for disadvantaged men the search often seems impossible.
The Vocational Educational Program accepts donations of men’s business clothing
from individuals and businesses.
By recognizing the challenge that
these men face, you can take steps to make securing employment a little easier.
Donations help ease the transition between the job training program and the
job-seeking process. Large size clothing is especially needed, but all
contributions are welcome. Items sought are:
- Business suits
- Sports jackets
- Slacks
- Business shirts
- Ties
