Because of your incredible generosity, our clothing inventory is currently full!

To give our team time to sort, process, and distribute the thousands of items we've received, we are temporarily pausing clothing donations through at least September 30, 2026.

We'll reevaluate our inventory at that time and let everyone know when clothing donations can resume.

We are so grateful for your continued support of Dress for Success Central Virginia and the women we serve. Thank you for helping us ensure every donation is thoughtfully processed and put to good use.

Please follow our page or visit our website for future updates on donation availability.

Sometimes, the best support starts with a simple conversation.

Life can be overwhelming, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. Join us for Coffee & Conversations, an intimate gathering where women can connect, share, be encouraged, and simply breathe in a judgment-free space.

Whether you’re celebrating a win, working through a challenge, or just need to be around women who understand, we’d love to have you at the table.

TOMORROW!

Join Dr. Shantell J. Chambliss, CFRE, Executive Director of Dress for Success Central Virginia, for a powerful workshop on building financial resilience and making confident money decisions at every stage of your journey.

So many women carry incredible strength, determination, and resilience — but too often, they’ve had to navigate money decisions without the tools, confidence, or support they deserve.

In this one-hour session, participants will gain practical, shame-free strategies to:

💡 shift from a survival mindset to a stability mindset
💡 strengthen financial confidence
💡 make empowered decisions about income, expenses, and long-term goals
💡 walk away with actionable next steps they can use right away

Whether you’re entering the workforce, navigating a transition, or working toward long-term independence, this conversation is designed to meet you where you are.

Because financial resilience isn’t just about money — it’s about freedom.

Dress for Success Central Virginia is opening our space to a small number of nonprofit partners who need a professional place to work, meet funders, collaborate, and grow!
