Dressbarn Promotion To Collect, Distribute Professional Attire to Needy Job Seekers

For the thousands of women who are without an interview suit or professional-looking ensemble, Dress for Success, the international nonprofit organization that promotes economic independence for the disadvantaged women, has teamed up with Dressbarn, the national retailer of women’s clothing, to collect and distribute professional attire for its 10th annual “Send One Suit Weekend.”

The goal of the partnership is to give underprivileged women across the country the ability to walk into a job interview with confidence. The path to self-sufficiency begins with the elementary tools to get their foot in the door.

From March 1-4, gently-used suits, pants, shirts, skirts, shoes and other professional items can be donated at any of the 825 Dressbarn locations nationwide.

These donations will be distributed among local nonprofit organizations to be given to less fortunate women looking to re-enter the workforce.

Call 212-431-4694 with questions.

More than 51,000 professional items of clothing were collected during last year’s ‘Send One Suit’ donation drive. This year, Dressbarn's goal is more than 60,000 pieces of professional attire.
