Hold a Career Apparel or Handbag Drive - The first step
in any successful interview is looking the part.
Help a woman on her road to employment by gathering
your colleagues and hosting a drive in your office for Dress
for Success. We
accept new and nearly-new professional attire and handbags for
women of all sizes.
We can even pick up the donations with our Suits to Go
program if you are based in New York City.

bethany@dressforsuccess.org for more information on
hosting a drive, or for other corporate volunteer
opportunities we have available.
Participate in the annual S.O.S. - Send One Suit- Weekend®
Every year, Dress for Success issues an “SOS” to women across the
country to donate their nearly-new suits and career separates
to help deserving women enter the workforce and take charge of
their lives. If there is not a Dress for Success affiliate
near you, you can drop off your donation at any of the 800
dressbarn stores nationwide that serve as drop-off sites. Your
local dressbarn will ship your donation to one of our
affiliate locations across the country. For more details,
