Dress for Success® Suit Drive Hosted at Westy Self Storage

Westy Self Storage is hosting a suit drive for Dress for Success® Mid-Fairfield County through March 30.

Westy Self Storage is hosting a suit drive for Dress for Success® Mid-Fairfield County through March 30. Westy in Wilton, located at 65 Danbury Road, just south of Outdoor Sports Center, will serve as a designated drop off location for donations. Items needed include: suits, pants, skirts, jackets, blazers, blouses, tops, shells, cosmetics and toiletries, handbags, por­tfolios, jewelry, scarves, interview appropriate footwear and unopened/unused pantyhose.

Dress for Success® Mid-Fairfield County promotes the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life. Creating a good first impression during a job interview has never been more important yet many disadvantaged women trying to break into the workplace do not have the appropriate clothing to wear to make a professional and successful appearance.

“Having Westy’s convenient location as a place where people can bring their donations has helped us immensely,” said Sarah Lewis, Program Manager, Dress for Success® Mid-Fairfield County. “We are able to reach a greater number of women with the donations we receive from generous members of the community.”
