Dress for Success provides interview appropriate suits and accessories for disadvantaged women who are entering or re-entering the job market. Dress for Success works with a diverse population of women who come from many different backgrounds. However, they all share one important quality in common: they all are highly motivated to change their lives for the better and Dress for Success exists to assist them in doing so.
Dress for Success doesn't stop there. Dress for Success offers ongoing support after a woman finds a job through their Professional Women's Group (PWG). TimeFinder's program, "From Perception to Reality--Organize for Success!" was extremely well received by PWG attendees.
I was so impressed with the dedication of the women working for Dress for Success Boston as well as their clients. Dress for Success Boston needs your help. They will be having 2 donation days in August.
This is a great opportunity go to your closets and select a business outfit and accessories to donate! Please make sure what you choose is appropriate for a job interview. Making a good first impression is vital. Feeling confident in what you are wearing makes an amazing difference.
When you know you are giving to a good cause, it makes it so much easier go to the closet and find that special outfit that someone else can benefit from.
Please do what you can. If you are a man reading this, please pass this along to your wife, girlfriend, partner, sister, friend, daughter, etc. who may have women's suits and accessories to donate.
