A CLEANER WORLD ANNOUNCES ASSISTANCE FOR UNEMPLOYED AREA WORKERS

HIGH POINT, NC – A Cleaner World is offering free dry cleaning to anyone who is currently unemployed and needs freshly cleaned and pressed clothes for a job interview. For men, A Cleaner World will clean a suit or blazer and slacks, plus two dress shirts per week and for women, a suit and two shirts or blouses or two regular dresses per week. All a customer needs to provide to receive the free cleaning is a current statement from the Employment Security Commission. The free cleaning offer is effective immediately and will continue through August 31, 2009.

With North Carolina’s unemployment rate approaching 10% in January, A Cleaner World, a local family-owned business, decided this was a great way to assist unemployed workers in the area. “This is just our way of trying to help out our neighbors.” said Chris Edwards, President of A Cleaner World. Edwards added, “It’s our hope that this might relieve some of the stress on job seekers and their families and give them a better opportunity at finding another job.” “First impressions are so important, especially in today’s tight job market,” said Larry Diana, owner of Express Employment Professionals in Greensboro, NC “Most applicants may not think to get their suit cleaned before a job interview, but there is something about putting on a crisp shirt and freshly cleaned suit that gives an applicant added confidence. That confidence could be the extra factor that helps him or her land their next job. A Cleaner World is providing a terrific service to the members of our community.”
