Treehugger has a short and sweet article about the Belmont Clothes Library in Australia, which loans out business apparel to the unemployed so they can look smart for job interviews!
Belmont also worked with a men’s retail chain, Worth’s Menswear, who helped the library through a scheme “whereby customers buying suits from its stores were offered a $ 50 trade-in on an old suit that had been dry cleaned.” These trade-ins were then donated to the library.
A smart and innovative approach to things for sure!
Thanks Treehugger!
