Threads For Success Suit Drive-Thru 2020

The original 2020 Threads For Success annual event back in March was canceled due to Covid-19. However through the vision of our Board Chair Rob Wachler, a modified version of the event was presented and approved by the TFS Board of Directors after the mandated shutdown was lifted. On Wednesday July 1st, 2020 staff from Tom James Clothing and volunteers from the community volunteered their time to assist us with a drive-thru style event. Starting at 9am each graduate arrived onsite to a parking lot full of clothing and volunteers to assist them. Each graduate received a suite, shirt and tie as promised. We had the chance to meet some outstanding young men from the City of Detroit. Some of these young men are going to great colleges like Howard University and Cal Tech. Special thanks to all of the volunteers and community partners who showed up in 85 degree weather. We are thankful for the media coverage provided by Channel 4 News Detroit. See link below
