We are passionate about empowering the amazing women of Central Ohio. All of our services are free of charge to every woman we serve.
Our Mission is to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.
Since beginning to assist disadvantaged women
re-entering the workforce in 2007, we have been blessed with the opportunity to assist women in our community who are beginning their journey to self-sufficiency. We rely on the financial contributions, in-kind donations and volunteer efforts of individuals and companies around the region who are committed to helping women take charge of their lives, acheiving positive change within our community.
Here's what LeeAnna, one of our valued clients, shared with us recently:
"God bless you, Dress for Success Columbus. I cannot express how much your personal services have helped me believe in myself again. I had lost hope and thought that my negative situation could never change because I had made poor choices. Because you embraced me without judging me, I had the chance to first be dressed in a beautiful suit for my interview. Nancy, the woman who helped me pick out a perfect outfit, really cared about me finding the perfect outfit. I felt SO special. I walked in feeling worthless and walked out of Dress for Success Columbus feeling capable and worthly. My appointment in the Career Center helped me determine what areas I needed to focus on so that I was 'dressed up' on the inside, too. Every person I have met has been caring, kind, generous and helped me realize I can do this. My kids are so proud of me, and I am so proud of me too! It's been a really long time since I felt that way about myself. Please keep helping women. We need you."
LeeAnna really says it best. Hope renewed. Perception changed. Commitment to success. Women helping women be their best and achieve. Please visit our 'Testimonials' link and read about more transformational experiences.
