I wanted to do a separate post about Men’s Wearhouse National Suit Drive that runs from September 1st thru the 31st. I feel this is a hugely important event that I wanted to highlight here on “Deal”icious Mom. Yes, Men’s Wearhouse was super generous to me recently but that has nothing to do with me posting this event. I truly find this National Suit Drive to be a great way to help our communities.

Appearance matters to a new employer. With this Suit Drive you can help men in crisis make a good impression during job interviews. The National Suit Drive is a program in its third year helping low income (or no income) men strive for self-sufficiency. By donating your gently used professional attire to your nearest Men’s Wearhouse store this month, you can help someone get a second chance. To learn more, go here.

The clothing items that they are looking to collect include:

• Suits
• Sport coats
• Dress slacks
• Dress shirts
• Dress shoes
• Sportswear (linen shirts, sweaters, casual pants, vests)
• Outerwear (jackets, long coats, raincoats)
• Ties and other accessories

So, start by going through your closet and pulling items in your wardrobe with minimal wear. Head to your nearest Men’s Wearhouse store to drop-off your items until September 30, 2010. The clothing donations collected in stores will be sent to local non-profit organizations.

Then since Men’s Wearhouse appreciates your generosity. As a thank-you for your donation, you’ll receive a 25% off discount coupon toward your next Men’s Wearhouse purchase. They will also provide you with a tax receipt from the receiving nonprofit organization.

Please think about taking part of this Suit Drive!
