According to Massey Knakal Realty Services, its employees donated interview-appropriate clothing benefiting countless underprivileged men and women through the organizations Dress for Success and Men's Wearhouse.
Dress for Success serves clients by referral only, all women having to interview prior to receiving clothing. Their clients come from diverse non-profit and government agencies including homeless shelters, immigration services, job training programs, educational institutions and domestic violence shelters.
Men's Wearhouse works with non-profit groups and corporations across the country to gather and distribute donated professional clothing. Massey Knakal partook in their 1st Annual National Suit Drive; for every full suit Massey Knakal donated, Men's Wearhouse matched it with one new dress shirt. To date, more than 65,000 suits, sports coats, slacks and accessories have been donated through suit drives over the past nine years.
Massey Knakal held the drive in all three of its offices in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens. The Massey Knakal Charitable Foundation represents several non-profit organizations and contributes to the communities in which the firm operates.
