Dress For Success-Oregon

Established in 1998, Dress for Success Oregon has helped over 27,000 women get and keep employment. DFSO is a workforce development organization committed to helping women get work, succeed in work and become economically self sustaining. The face of poverty is feminine, 70% of those in poverty are women and children, and the most effective way to break the cycle of poverty is by helping women obtain and maintain employment and explore entrepreneurship opportunities. Women-helping-women is an effective, non-threatening service model to help women overcome their fears, re-frame their backgrounds and build their self-confidence.

DFSO has many different arms that need your help! Our focus is on job retention, pre-employment skills and providing women with industry appropriate clothing and services. Because we have so many arms- we are in need of various types of help! Please visit our website to learn more about our ongoing volunteer opportunities and sign up for an upcoming volunteer orientation.
