“This is the 5th year that Hyundai has contributed to the Working Wardrobes cause,” said Pat Benfield, manager, Community Relations, Hyundai Motor America. We respect the good work the organization is doing helping adults regain their lives with positive support to re-enter the workforce. Hyundai is assuming a growing role as a philanthropic member of its national and local communities and supports many worthwhile projects.”

The majority of women’s clothing donated by Hyundai employees in 2007 went to support the “Women’s Day of Self-Esteem” which provided local Huntington Beach and Orange County residents with the moral support and job advice needed to succeed in the workplace.
