Dress for Success ~ Volunteering as a Personal Shopper
This past week was my orientation to volunteer to be a personal shopper for Dress for Success. Dress for Success is a non-profit organization that empowers women to get employment and keep it.
The program provides women with interview attire and other pieces of casual clothing for their work environment. There is also a career development services program that promotes employment retention and career advancement.
After our meeting we got a tour of the boutique and I was impressed….
This is inside the office. There is a piano that has hand craved artwork on it. The office manager said that sometimes women come and “ticker” on it. I know I will end up doing that.
This is artwork done by one of our local artist. It was presented during one of their fashion shows.
This is inside the boutique. The clients will get everything. They get jewelry, hosiery, new bras, shoes and a bag!
I loved seeing this! This was done by California Closets. I look forward to serving women in my community as their personal shopper and I look forward to putting together some great looks!
I believe serving is elegant….

Mrs. Shockley, this is absolutely so thoughtful of you! Having a servants heart is beautiful and touching on so many levels. I know that helping these women in your community will be rewarding to you. The women who you will help will always remember you. You are chic, graceful, elegant and poised. I cant wait to hear more about your volunteering!
Thank you Mrs. Shery! I am really looking forward to serving. I really am. There might be one in the South Carolina location…..
