BEFORE






AFTER

8 hard-working volunteers from Deloitte made a 6-foot tall pile of clothing donations disappear last week during their “Impact Day”. In just 6 hours, they managed to sort through weeks’ worth of donations, so that we could once again see the floor… Thank you Deloitte crew!!!

Dress for Success Vancouver kicked off our annual fall fundraiser, Dress Me for Success Corporate Challenge, at Oakridge Centre September 1st. Challengers made noise by popping balloons to select which items they will collect over the month of September in support of local women re-entering the workforce.

Nineteen companies are taking part in the Challenge, which includes a drive, raffle, scavenger hunt and fashion show. You can join the Corporate Challengers at the Marriot Pinnacle Hotel on October 7th to celebrate the completion of their month-long challenge.

Tickets are $25.00 (one drink and appies included). The evening includes a fashion show, supporters showcase, auction and door prizes. Watch as Challengers strut their stuff and are awarded their prizes.
