You may not know it, but the simple act of cleaning out your closet
can change people’s lives. That’s why Century Park is teaming up
with Clothes The Deal, a non-profit organization that helps
low-income people succeed by providing them with business attire, accessories and training as
they enter or re-enter the workforce.
Clothes The Deal works with more than 80 social service agencies throughout Los Angeles
County and surrounding areas, distributing over 30,000 pieces of business and casual clothing
to men, women and at-risk youth. Every donation means a new step up the social and financial
ladder for someone in need.
If you’d like to make a difference in someone’s life, bring your clean clothing and accessories
to the Clothes The Deal drop boxes that will be located in the lobbies of Century Plaza Towers
and 2000 Avenue of the Stars through April 26, 2013.
This is your chance to make a fashion statement that really says something.

Kennerly and Joao Silva.

first democratic election in 1994. Ashley Gilbertson is filmed in Midland, Texas, on the
