Naples-based Platinum Dry Cleaners announced its second year of Empower Wear, a month-long charitable clothing collection program to benefit Dress for Success SWFL. The collection event runs until April 30. The collection program, in conjunction with the national affiliation of America’s Best Cleaners, will provide gently worn professional and business casual clothing for Southwest Florida women in need by helping them achieve economic independence and access employment opportunities by providing proper attire for interviewing, professional meetings and corporate protocol. Platinum Dry Cleaners route customers can look for a hang tag and text the day before their scheduled delivery. An Empower Wear garment bag and the normal dry cleaning delivery will be provided, and Platinum’s home route driving staff will collect the donations on pick-up day. Donations are tax-deductible, and receipts will be included with the donation bag. This is on top of accepting donations at both Platinum’s retail locations at 3633 Tamiami Trail N. in Naples and 7055 Radio Road in East Naples.
