Warm their Soles: Holiday Shoe Drive

Dress for Success is an international not-for-profit organization that empowers women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.

Since starting operations in 1997, Dress for Success has expanded to almost 150 cities in 20 countries and has helped more than 850,000 women work towards self-sufficiency.

Many great companies are doing their part to help this amazing organization. Among them is California Closets.Currently, they’re running a “Warm Soles” promotion, until the end of December that benefits the Jersey City chapter of Dress for Success. They’re offering an incentive of up to 10% off new sales with the donation of professional women’s shoes, and they’re sending those off to Dress for Success.

“Women often come to Dress for Success when they are at a vulnerable place in their lives,” said Joi Gordon, CEO of Dress for Success Worldwide. “The donations that we receive on #GivingShoesDay literally help women feel more comfortable in the next steps they are about to take in their careers—and their lives.”
