Dress for Success Oregon

Tax deductible
As a mom, a career coach, and an instructor at the University of Oregon, my passion is helping people unleash their full potential. I'm running for Mrs. Oregon 2021 to inspire more people (especially women!) to go after their dreams.  As I gear up for the Mrs. Oregon pageant, I’ve partnered with Dress for Success to raise money to help women who are trying to better themselves during this tough time. 

Covid has had a huge impact on all of us and especially on women. Last year over 2 million American women left the workforce – whether they were laid off, had to leave due to schools being closed, or for some other reason. I have three school-aged kids so know first-hand what the struggle has been like for women trying to balance work and family. 

Dress for Success is an incredible organization that offers services to help women find employment, retain jobs, grow their skills, and ultimately build economic security. Want to join me in making a difference? Any donation will help make an impact. Here's what your donation will do:

$10 provides 1  woman with a bag of beauty and essential toiletry supplies
$25 provides 1 ride share credit to/from our boutique for work-ready and interview clothing pickup 
$50 provides a pair of scrubs to 2 women entering the healthcare profession
$100 provides a scholarship for 1 woman to earn her GED
$250 provides a scholarship for 1 woman to earn a professional certification 
$500 provides all job-search training materials for 25 women
$1000 provides all job-search training materials for 50 women

All funds raised go directly to Dress for Success, are 100% tax deductible, and you’ll be automatically emailed a tax receipt. Help me blow my fundraising goal out of the park? 

Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

p.s. GoFundMe posts donations to the tracker 1-2 days after they are made but you'll receive immediate confirmation via email.
