About Dress for Success NSW & ACT – Illawarra branch

Dress for Success NSW & ACT – Illawarra supports local women to face their job search with the confidence, clothing, and tools to get hired.

We operate a sustainable clothing model where donated items are used to provide beautiful outfits to our clients to support them on their journey to employment. Feeling confident because of a fantastic new outfit for an interview or first day in a new job is a step in the right direction.

Where the donation is surplus to current needs or not suitable for the occasion, we recycle the item via a series of vital fundraising fashion sales.
