Commercial real estate firm CBRE is launching its sixth annual, city-wide business clothing drive. The PurSUIT of SUCCESS initiative helps women and men across the Phoenix area to access the clothing they need to excel as professionals.

The clothing drive will benefit four non-profit organizations that make job training and career counseling more accessible to Valley residents. The four beneficiaries of the business clothing drive are:

  • Dress for Success, which seeks to empower women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and career development tools.
  • Fresh Start Women’s Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping empower women through services focused on economic self-sufficiency, self-esteem and lifelong learning.
  • Sojourner Center, an organization that provides comprehensive services to address the many ways domestic violence impacts women, children and the community.
  • St. Joseph the Worker, which assists the homeless, low-income and other disadvantaged individuals in their efforts to become self-sufficient through quality employment.

Through Oct. 10-21, contemporary, gently used business attire can be donated—Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.—at CBRE’s Phoenix Esplanade office, located at 2415 E. Camelback Rd.
