Let’s help some ladies go pro!  Professional that is.  Please bring your (and a few of your friends) gently used professional clothing (accessories included) and join us at Dress for Success as we help sort donations and provide general help in their boutique.  Our donations and assistance will help these new professional women by providing attire for interviews and work environments.  If you are unable to attend but have clothing to donate please reach out to Lisa Kopis at lisa.kopis@usbank.com to arrange delivery.

About:
Dress for Success Midwest opened in 1998 after our former CEO & Founder, Kathy Lambert, read an article that explained how Dress for Success New York provided interview appropriate attire to women in challenging situations, helping to level the playing field as other women seeking employment. She took a leap of faith and opened the first Dress for Success affiliate outside of New York City.

We have come a long way since 1998 suiting ladies out of the trunk of Kathy’s car. We currently have a large, two-room boutique in St. Charles, outfitted by California Closets and full of beautiful, pressed business attire and accessories. Our mission is growing and while we may be best known for providing suits to women, it is our employment retention programs that are the cornerstone of the organization. We offer women ongoing support as they successfully transition into the workforce.

Dress for Success relies on the financial contributions, in-kind donations and volunteer efforts of individuals and companies in are community who are committed to impacting change in women’s lives.

Dress for Success Midwest is a program of Connections to Success, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
