BluFi Direct Mortgage Joins Dress for Success and Robert Half International in Nationwide “Suit Drive”

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BluFi Direct Mortgage (www.BluFiDirect.com), one of the fastest growing online direct lenders with no commissions, successfully ended a two-week clothing drive to benefit low income job seekers Friday, August 27^th. The San Diego-based online mortgage banker joined Robert Half International (RHI) in its support of Dress for Success to donate business suits, shoes and accessories.

“In just two weeks we gathered three big boxes of clothing plus several bags of shoes and accessories”

Dress for Success is a nonprofit organization that has helped more than 550,000 women around the world since 1997. Each Dress for Success client receives one suit when she has a job interview and can return for a second suit when she finds work. BluFi employees enthusiastically participated with direct donations of near-new clothing, freshly cleaned and interview-ready. The drive was promoted in and outside BluFi through emails, signs, and staff meetings.

“In just two weeks we gathered three big boxes of clothing plus several bags of shoes and accessories,” said BluFi Operations Manager Sandy Simmons. “We promoted this as the community service event of the month. It’s an important cause and something the employees really embraced, so we had a great response. We’re all aware of the tough job market and want to help any way we can.”

In addition to charitable projects, BluFi regularly organizes other team-building activities, including catered lunches, sponsored outings and similar appreciation programs. Future planned charitable initiatives include community clean-up and repair-type projects.

“As a growing company, we are helping the local community by hiring unemployed mortgage professionals and now by contributing to charitable events too,” said John Lee, BluFi CEO. “Rather than just one big event a year, at BluFi we believe charity and community involvement are important all year long. By participating in events like this one for Dress for Success, we are making a positive impact on the community. That’s what we’re all about at BluFi.”
