💜 More than professional clothing. More than a styling appointment.

🙆 For many women, it is a reminder that they are not alone as they navigate their employment journey.

🤝 It is a community coming together to support, encourage, and uplift women as they work toward their goals.

✨ One client recently shared that the experience left her feeling "more prepared, confident, and excited for the opportunities ahead."

💼 As a newcomer navigating the job market, she found more than professional attire, she found confidence, encouragement, and support.

❤️ Stories like this remind us that the impact of our services goes far beyond the clothing itself.

🌟 Every woman deserves the opportunity to step into her next interview, practicum, internship, or job feeling confident and ready for success.

👕 Their volunteers supported both Dress for Success Calgary and My Best Friend’s Closet by sorting donations and preparing clothing and accessories for our boutiques.

🛍️ These efforts help ensure our boutiques are ready to welcome women and teen girls as they select clothing for job interviews, new jobs, school, and other important milestones in their lives.

🤝 In addition to volunteering their time, Stantec also made a financial contribution to support our programs.

✨ We are grateful for their support and commitment to helping women and teen girls access the resources they need as they take their next steps toward their goals.
