A massive shout-out to Lulu’s Free Store and Junior Achievement of Western Pennsylvania for leading an incredible initiative to support young men transitioning into the workforce!

Founded by W&J student Grace “LuLu” Reid-Vensel, Lulu’s Free Store continues to make a real impact by ensuring students and young adults have access to the clothing and essentials they need to feel confident and prepared. Partnering with Junior Achievement, this program helps equip young men with professional attire as they take their next steps toward career success.

Thanks to the generosity of our employees, we were grateful to support their effort with donations of dress shoes, sport coats, professional clothing, and hygiene items — all of which will be provided to students at an event on January 8 at the Western Area Career and Technology Center.

Every item collected helps strengthen the future workforce, and we’re honored to play a small part in empowering the students these programs champion.
