We will host 200 guests for a fabulous cocktail hour with beverages and yummy appetizers, a silent auction and raffle and memorable fashion show filled with outstanding works of creative ensembles.

What is Dress for Success Quad Cities |
Dress for Success Quad Cities began in November 2011 and is an affiliate of a worldwide non-profit dedicated to promoting the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing free professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life. Thanks to the generosity of the Bechtel Trusts, in 2014 Dress for Success Quad Cities moved to a 10,000 sq. ft. building, where they are only required to pay annual rent in the amount of $1.00. Through this generosity and the generosity of so many others, Dress for Success Quad Cities continues to grow and expand so that one day every low-resourced woman in the Quad Cities who needs appropriate work attire for an interview and new job will be fitted. In addition to suiting, Dress for Success Quad Cities offers women a number of programs to help them find and retain employment. Clients receiving services range in age from 18-60, with a large percentage of those clients being single mothers, raising (on average) 2-3 children. The services Dress for Success Quad Cities provides are important to this community and support is desperately needed so that these services can be continued.
