I am proud to work with and represent this organization” states Barbara Melvin President of Dress for Success SW Florida.

Barbara propels people into action with her excitement as she speaks about her “favorite” organization. She and her husband Daniel CEO/
Owner of Most Romantic Voice Productions, LLC are partnering to ensure that this years “Party with a Purpose” on March 27th exceeds guest expectation. Daniel, one of the most beloved entertainers in the area loves to sing and you’ll love to listen. This dynamic couple who are
partners in life, love the concept of assisting others who are on their way to independence through a new career. Helping those who are willing to help themselves is certainly a concept that we can all get behind.

Dress for Success is an International not-for-profit organization whose mission is to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support, and career development tools to help them thrive in work and in life. Although the mission has expanded over time, the “suiting program” remains a crucial part of their work. It’s also a vital first step in a woman’s journey toward self sufficiency. The organization provides an array of programs designed to educate, motivate, and uplift women impacting them in the workplace and their personal lives.

Dress for Success also offers women a Career Center that promotes confidence and professionalism by providing career guidance, technology skills, resumé and cover letter writing lessons, interview preparation and support in their job search. It’s actually quite an accomplishment that programs have been developed to coach and guide a woman on how to interview for a position and additional programs to sustain them.

• Going Places Network A successful program presented by Walmart for unemployed women.
• Professional Women’s Group A job retention program created by Dress for Success for employed women.
