Give dress shirts to rehabilitation center

By Marcia Pounds August 28, 2009 03:48 PM

Eddie Edwards, owner of SIR Men's Wear, a West Palm Beach store specializing in an exclusive line of distinguished, tailored French shirts, is literally giving the shirt off his back, and he's encouraging others to join him.

Edwards' " The Shirt off Your Back" campaign will take place during the month of September. Edwards is calling on men to donate the dress shirts they no longer wear.

For every two, gently-used shirts or more donated at the store, men will receive 30% off one regularly-priced shirt or item for themselves.

The shirts are being donated to New Beginnings, a rehabilitation center in Delray Beach that focuses on getting those wholve suffered from drug and alcohol abuse back on their feet and into the workforce.

Men entering the center's job placement support program will be outfitted with the donated shirts to help give them a professional look for their new start.

SIR Men’s Wear is located at 600 S. Rosemary Ave., Suite 154, in CityPlace. For more information please call 561-650-0007 or visit SIR Men's Wear -- Marcia "Bargain Hunter" Pounds
