Lawyers from the Oklahoma Association for Justice donated a trailer full of professional clothing to The Education and Employment Ministry.
TEEM is a local interfaith, nonprofit organization that provides education, social services and job placement assistance to adults who are trying to better their lives.
The clothing presented Thursday, including more than 100 suits, will help clients of TEEM make a good first impression in job interviews, Michael Jackson, associate director of programs at TEEM, said in a news release.
The professional clothing drive is the kickoff to an ongoing partnership between TEEM and the Oklahoma Association for Justice.
At its winter meeting today, the group will present TEEM with a check for $5,000. In addition, members of the association will provide free legal advice to TEEM clients at legal clinics to be held throughout the year.
