Dewitt Lee III, the owner of St. Brian Clothiers fine men’s wear, has embarked upon an initiative that provides free suits and ties to those who are are planning on attending any of the funerals.

The inspirational store is in place to provide a necessary service to those directly affected by the tragedy of the Tops Supermarket domestic terrorist attack. Not only will men be able to find free suits and ties to wear to the funerals (or an upcoming high school prom), the storefront seconds as a community outreach center, with special guest speakers, holistic healers, ministers, etc., who will help those who are reeling from the heavy burden.
Men’s Headquarters is a place full of encouragement, healing, and support for the men of Buffalo.
Through a partnership with the area’s police district, donations were left over the weekend while the space was being prepared. Beginning on Monday, May 23rd UNTIL Tuesday, May 24th, The Men’s Headquarters will be open from 10 am until 6 pm.
