Project Gentlemen Las Vegas to Give Graduating High School Students the Chance to ‘Dress to Impress’
Young men from Las Vegas high schools will be dressed to impress for their high school graduations, courtesy of Project Gentlemen Las Vegas and Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino.
The charitable arm of I Am a Gentleman, Inc. (IAAG), a national organization that mentors and empowers male teens through various programs and activities, Project Gentlemen Las Vegas will present up to 100 graduating male seniors who have pre-registered and, in many cases, will be the first graduating members of their families, with graduating attire, including suits, sport coats, dress shirts, neck ties, and other accessories, and the tools to become marketable and successful.

“We’re excited to be able to expand Project Gentlemen to the young men in Las Vegas and appreciate the tremendous support we’ve received,” said Robin Pero Price, Board Member of IAAG. “Working with Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino, local businessmen and companies, along with supporters from across the country, we are able to provide graduation attire — suits, sport coats, dress shirts, neck ties, and other accessories to more than 80 young men to fulfill this effort. We believe the Project Gentlemen experience will provide young men with the tools they need to make them marketable and successful in today’s competitive society.”
