Founder & Former Chair - Trena Olfert
Founded in 2011 by Trena Olfert after she and her husband relocated from Regina, SK. Trena recognized the need to have Dress for Success running in Calgary. Backed by a team of powerful women who believe that, as women, we should support, encourage, and bring hope. Also, we fill a need for those who may be going through life changes, such as women to be forced into getting into the workforce. Our mission is to get these individuals through the doors of Dress for Success Calgary so we can provide proper attire to step out into the work world with the utmost confidence.
