Support Dress for Success | Donate | Product
Thank you for choosing to support Dress for Success!
Corporations willing to donate new product to the women we serve are making a unique difference to an industry-related cause. Enabling our women to interview and, in turn, enter the workforce wearing merchandise from your company is a feeling often described by both donors and our clients as incredible. In 2006 alone, corporations supported Dress for Success by donating approximately 140,000 pieces of new clothing and accessories totaling over $4.4 million.
Make a secure, online financial contribution to Dress for Success or to learn more about how to support Dress for Success financially visit our Donate Funding page.
