Neponset Valley Chamber Holds Clothing Drive

The Neponset Valley Chamber of Commerce will be collecting business suits and other professional attire to be worn by disabled and/or low income people to job interviews and to work.  

The drive runs July 1 through July 29. Suits, dresses, blouses, skirts, slacks, belts, purses and hosiery may be dropped off at the chamber office, 190 Vanderbilt Ave., Norwood from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday.

The chamber will donate the clothes to Morgan Memorial, which will in turn give them to disabled and low- income people in the Neponset Valley region who cannot afford to buy professional clothes.

Donors will receive a $5 discount if they bring clothing to the Business After Hours at the Residence Inn in Walpole on July 28. Clean clothes are optimal, and clothes on a hanger is a plus.

Anyone wanting bins or racks for their office, to collect donations from employees or other businesses nearby should contact the chamber.
