TERM 4 CLOTHING DRIVE

DRESS FOR SUCCESS

‘Dress for Success’ is a charity that strives for a world where all women are financially independent and are treated with dignity and respect.

Their purpose is to offer long-lasting solutions that enable women to break the cycle of poverty.
They do this by equipping their clients with apparel and accessories to help them secure employment.

HOW CAN WE HELP

We are calling on the generosity and support of our Splashout community for our ‘Clothing Drive’.

WHAT TO DONATE

We are looking for clothing/accessories that you could wear to a job interview. Specifically:

  • new or nearly-new suits
  • other business appropriate apparel, ie blouses, skirts, jackets
  • shoes – especially black (in good condition)
  • handbags
  • accessories, ie scarves
  • jewellery

Clothing must be freshly laundered and ironed and suitable for wearing to job interviews. If items are not suitable for interviews, they are still welcome and will be placed in the shop front – all proceeds will go towards the ‘Dress for Success’ program.

The rule of thumb for assessing whether donations are suitable is – if you would loan it to your best girlfriend for a really important interview then it is an item that Dress for Success would love to have.

COLLECTION POINT

Please deliver your items to Splashout Art Studios, 5 Ravine Street, Marino

COLLECTION DATES

Saturday 17 October – Saturday 31 October 2020 (Term 4)
