2025/2026 Clothing Donation Days

When you donate clothing to Dress for Success Triangle, you’re giving more than workplace attire. You’re giving a woman the confidence, dignity, and readiness she needs to take the next step in her career. Every blazer, pair of shoes, and handbag becomes a tangible tool she can wear into an interview, a first day at work, or a life-changing promotion.

Your contribution directly fuels economic mobility for women across North Carolina. By providing high-quality, work-appropriate clothing, you help women step into new roles, support their families, and build long-term stability. Thank you for turning your generosity into opportunity and for helping transform a woman’s career and future.
