Dress for Success Seeks Volunteers

Dress for Success, a program committed to helping women get back on their feet, is looking for volunteers.

The not-for-profit organization, whose Western regional office is located at 1680 Vine St., has served more than 2,500 women since it opened four years ago.

Dress for Success aims to help women secure employment by giving them training for interviews, assistance with their resumes and business suits to wear when they go out on interviews.
