Moores Clothing for Men held a Canadian Suit Drive that turned heads across major Canuck cities. Assisting unemployed men across the country, street teams were organized to raise awareness by wearing only boxers, dress shoes, socks and ties, while carrying signs that read “Give the suit off your back.” From June 28 to July 31, 2012, men are being encouraged to drop off gently used business wear at any Moores locations in Canada. The donations will benefit almost 50 organizations providing job-readiness programs.
