While I was working on our next post (hint - it's about the perfect food to go with your morning coffee), I came across this donation program to Dress for Success from Coffee-Mate. The cool thing about this is that you can write a personalized note of inspiration to a client of Dress for Success.
For those of you not familiar with the Dress for Success program, it is an organization that promotes economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire and career development tools.
I volunteered with Dress for Success, and it was a wonderful experience. Dress for Success sets up donated clothing, accessories, & cosmetics in a boutique-like atmosphere, and the client has a volunteer "personal shopper" to help them choose the best outfit from the "boutique" for their job interview or career needs. The organization also offers support and career development.

I'd heard about the Dress for Success (what a great program, especially nowadays), but did not know about Coffee-Mate's donation program--that is an absolutely terrific opportunity to give someone encouragment! Thanks for this post.
