Clothing drive nets 2,000 items for Hire Attire

    

Faculty and staff members donated more than 2,000 items during a drive last month to benefit the Hire Attire Boutique, an organization that collects "gently used" business clothes for men and women entering or re-entering the workforce after completing a New Jersey job training program. "Princeton University has been a wonderful friend to Hire Attire," said Angela Racz, instructor/coordinator for Hire Attire, which is part of the New Brunswick Public Schools Adult Learning Center.

"For two years now, the University has facilitated one of the largest and most successful clothing drives we've had. I know the clothes will be well used by men and women who really need the help getting back on their feet and into the workforce. Thank you for being so generous!"
