At Dress for Success Wellington, we were absolutely thrilled to be chosen as one of the charities to take part in the Volunteer Wellington Te Puna Tautoko Community Film Challenge. We were paired with some wonderfully talented young filmmakers who did an incredible job of bringing our work, our people and our mission to life.

And to top it off, we won the joint Most Creative/Out of the Box Award! It was such a special moment seeing our film up on the big screen at the Embassy Theatre on Friday — and now we can finally share it with you! Take a look, feel free to share, and if you don't already know us, come and see what we’re all about. We’d love to see you at Dress for Success Wellington.
