Throughout the month of July, Menβs Wearhouse will be holding its annual National Suit Drive (NSD), which occurs simultaneously in Canada and the USA and is North Americaβs largest collection of menβs gently used professional clothing. Β This will be the eighth Β year that the company is hosting this effort to encourage people to transform their unwanted business attire into a fresh start for millions of disadvantaged men who are trying to re-enter the workforce.
Β
Held at more than 900 Menβs Wearhouse locations across the US, the National Suit Drive collects menβs and womenβs suits, shirts, jackets, ties, belts, and shoes and distributes them to approximately 180 local charities who in turn, mentor, coach, and outfit those who are re-entering the workforce so they can make a great first impression.

The goal for 2015 is to collect 250,000 clothing items during the campaign. If they reach this goal, Men’s Wearhouse will hit 1 million clothing items donated to local charities since this campaign began 7 years ago!Β
