We are cleaning our closets for Dress for Success!
Our Drop & Shop Dress for Success Donation Drive helps women in our community get back on their feet and into the workforce. Your donation contributes to providing their clients with resources they can use to thrive. Whether it’s through skills development, Career Coaching, mock interviews, or a new confidence-boosting work outfit, your donation directly empowers clients to achieve independence and strength.
We will be collecting donations for 3 days October 25-27 by 45 minute appointments encouraged.
Appointments are now open click here to book.
Note: Although appointments are encouraged drop ins are welcome and you do not need an appointment if you are just dropping off clothes. We will be giving a discount code for those who do not have time/ want to shop in store so that they can use it online.
So how do you decide what to donate and how should it be donated?
What to Donate
We are going to challenge you to pick a maximum of 6 items that are Fall/ Winter appropriate:
- Clothing that is clean, laundered or dry-cleaned, separated by type and folded in bags
- Suits and separates that are modern / current and in great interview-ready condition
- Gently-used, clean, business-appropriate shoes, purses and jewellery
- Heels, flats, loafers, slip-resistant sneakers and clogs
- New hosiery and undergarments (tags on, unopened packaging)
- Unopened toiletries and cosmetics
If you would like to make a monetary donation in lieu of a clothing donation please visit our donation page.
How to Donate
Your donations can be folded in a bag. All items should be separated by commodity within each bag. For example, if you are donating jewellery and shoes, both need to be in their separate bag.
Get Back
This is your opportunity to receive 15% off your purchase on donation day.
To take advantage of our time together you can email us with a wish list the day before your appointment and we can have it set aside for you in the change room on donation day, we will try to put any available sizes aside for your appointment. All prior purchases to event day we will not be able to honour the discount. Some exclusions apply.
We know many of you look forward to this event every season and we thank you so much for your generosity and participation. We wanted to make sure we still support the women in our community as much as we can!
