Peerless Clothing International Donates $1M of Tailored Clothing to Help Men Get Back to Work


NEW YORK, June 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Peerless Clothing International will donate $1M worth of new tailored clothing this June from their portfolio of renowned brands to help men prepare to get back to work. Now more than ever, with tens of millions unemployed due to the coronavirus pandemic, men are looking for ways to stand out as they seek to re-enter the workforce. Peerless Chairman and CEO, Alvin Segal, believes wearing tailored clothing will help them look and feel their best at this critical time.

Partnering with the nonprofits Career Gear and Delivering Good, Peerless will distribute the clothing to men and youth in need. "We want to give men a renewed sense of confidence when they walk into job interviews, either in person or via video calls," says Peerless president, John Tighe.

Career Gear, which serves approximately 2,000 men annually, will initially focus on Bronx Community College, part of the City University of New York (CUNY). According to Paul Kim, Co-Chair of Career Gear's board, "The communities that we serve, particularly men of color, are facing unprecedented socio-economic challenges. We are grateful that Peerless is partnering with us to make a positive impact during this time."

Lisa Gurwitch, President and CEO of Delivering Good, notes, "Many people are facing the economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, especially people already in vulnerable circumstances in urban communities. We are working diligently to help individuals recover from the economic impact of COVID-19 through our community partners. A new suit, coat, or even a pair of socks, can mean so much."

Peerless Clothing International is the largest producer of men's and boy's tailored clothing in North America, supplying most major department and specialty stores in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Visit PeerlessClothing for details.

By supporting the national charity Delivering Good, you are helping families and individuals around the US impacted by COVID-19, including those facing poverty, homelessness, and job loss. Learn more at www.Delivering-Good.org

Career Gear empowers men of all ages to look and feel their best in their journey to improve their lives, families, and communities. Career Gear
