Dress for Success does not presently have an affiliate in Jacksonville but has designated the city as a priority with regard to our growth and expansion. We know that thousands of women in and around the city could benefit from our suiting, career development and employment retention programs, and we therefore are looking for an individual—working alone or with a group—who wants to bring Dress for Success back to Jacksonville. Starting an affiliate can be challenging, but it is also extremely rewarding. We may be best known as an organization that gives out suits, but we do much more than that—we change women's lives.
If you are located in Jacksonville and have services, equipment, a facility or other resources to donate to a Dress for Success, please contact the Worldwide office at worldwide@dressforsuccess.org. We will keep your information on file until we have an application pending for the area. General questions may be sent to Worldwide via that address as well.
You can learn more about the mission of Dress for Success and our programs by visiting the What We Do section of this Web site.

Please note that Dress for Success is not accepting clothing donations in Jacksonville at this time. We will not collect clothing in the community unless an affiliate is opened.
Unfortunately, because Dress for Success does not have an affiliate in Jacksonville, at this time we cannot offer services to women in need of professional attire or career development services. We do have four other affiliates in Florida serving the following areas: Greater Orlando, Miami, Palm Beach County and Tampa Bay. Please visit their Web sites for more information and to learn how you can help these organizations with a financial or clothing donation! We also are hoping to open new affiliates in Fort Myers and Tallahassee so that we can better serve women throughout Florida! We are looking for individuals in those communities as well who are interested in starting Dress for Success programs.
We look forward to bringing Dress for Success back to Jacksonville! |
