MENS CLOTHING ALBANY OR | HOW WE GIVE BACK | THE NATTY DRESSER

Our community has been very supportive of The Natty Dresser over the years, and we feel honored to be able to give back to our community, in ways that contribute to building up people who are less fortunate than others as well as in ways that promote the heath and unity of our amazing community as mens clothing Albany OR specialists. We especially feel called to help men be the man of excellence that God made them to be. Some of the non-profits and programs whose missions we are proud to be able to help support are:

• The Albany Downtown Association (ADA), The Natty Dresser has been members since 2014, and have volunteered to place our building on the Downtown Economic Improvement District (EID) which helps to fund the various works of the ADA, help sponsor The Downtown flower baskets, and the annual mixology madness event.

  We hold a contest where the community nominates a man who they feel is a role model of manhood, the deserving winner is given a suit, as a thank you for being a great example to those around him

• The River Church NW – Reboot Men’s Ministry, “Returning testosterone to men again”. Reboot meets in the Church foyer to have breakfast together, followed by a power packed devotional on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month, from 9-11am. The Natty Dresser contributes to a program called “First Suits” which provides a free suit to a man who is interested in and has shown great growth in their personal growth. Many of these men are former inmates and drug users who have turned their lives around and are looking to find gainful employment and have become productive members of our community.
• The Natty Dresser Suit Stash. We are often gifted used suits that we then turn around and give to men who are in need of a suit for a wedding, or funeral, but are unable to afford to purchase one. This is done on a case-by-case basis and is dependent on the suits that we have on hand. If you would like to donate a suit to this program, we welcome donations of clean suits that are in good repair.
• Mercy House; Mercy House International, Inc. is a Christ-centered, nonprofit ministry dedicated to the renewal of women and their children recovering from domestic abuse. We help to sponsor their annual Gala.
• Albany Antiques in the Streets; this annual street fair and car show uses the proceeds of the event to help fund a different deserving non-profit each year. We are happy to be able to help sponsor this event each year.
• The Lebanon Strawberry Festival; The Festival is a community wide celebration held each year since 1909 and continues today bringing the community together, and to celebrate the berry harvest and brings in people from all over Oregon to taste the World’s largest strawberry shortcake! The Natty Dresser provides the outfits for the fathers of the royal strawberry court, which gives these men the chance to stand on stage with their daughters with confidence and pride.
• Wedding package give-away Every January The Natty Dresser donates up to ten tuxedo rentals to a lucky couple for their wedding day. See the store for details in early January.

The Natty Dresser has a finite number of resources to put towards these worthy causes, but we are always looking for ways to be involved in the community. If you are with a Non-profit in Albany Oregon or the local area, tand would like to partner with The Natty Dresser to help men become all that God made them to be, or a program to help build up the community at large, please send us a flyer about the program that you have in mind, and we will look at it at our next management meeting, to see if it fits into our mission, and if it does, and we have the resources to make it happen we will let you know.
