GUEST - Miles Kubheka - Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator, Clothes to Good
H&M South Africa has officially announced its Suitably Dressed initiative, a nationwide effort aimed at equipping job seekers in need with interview-ready attire through a workwear donation drive. Community upliftment is key to H&M South Africa’s sustainability strategy, and the Suitably Dressed campaign enables the fashion retailer to tackle one of the country's most pressing socio-economic challenges: unemployment.
Many South Africans face the hurdle of inadequate access to professional clothing, potentially hindering their employment prospects. By channeling pre-loved workwear to those in need, the Suitably Dressed initiative aims to bolster the confidence of job seekers and help them leave a positive impression on potential employers. H&M is inviting South Africans to contribute to this cause by donating good quality, gently worn suits and workwear of any brand. The donation drive will run between 12-26 October, and donations can be dropped off at any H&M store across South Africa. For each bag of workwear, donors will receive two 15% off ‘thank you’ vouchers to use towards their next H&M purchases
