Y.E.S! Columbus


Originally founded in 2005 in New York, Young Executives for Success (Y.E.S!) is a volunteer branch of Dress for Success that provides its members with volunteer, fundraising and networking opportunities to champion the mission of Dress for Success. 

There are presently Y.E.S! groups in New York City, Chicago, Delaware, Indianapolis, Louisville, Miami, Memphis, Morris County (NJ), Orlando, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Triangle (NC), Vancouver, BC (Canada), and Columbus Ohio!

• Professional and social networking opportunities with representatives of a diverse range of major companies.
• Invitations to all Y.E.S! events which feature programs and guest speakers (e.g., in-store events, cocktail receptions and professional development workshops).
• The opportunity to volunteer with specific projects for our Dress for Success - Columbus parent organization, that are tailored to members' specific talents and interests.

We are looking forward to meeting you at our next event! Please feel free to bring a friend or colleague to any event - guests are always welcome. (Please note: some events may have a cost associated and therefore, may have a different price for non-members.)
