In 2002, Sharon Cox realized her dream of opening a non-profit that focused on teaching computer skills to women of domestic violence and low-income women. The Ladder Alliance offers women the job skills necessary to secure employment in today’s technological job market, and eliminates barriers to attending class by providing snacks, bi-lingual, evening, and online classes. Students also earn vouchers that can used in our Success Store to purchase professional attire and haircut/blow-dry/styling are also available for every student!
Our Success Store needs Volunteers so that we can have regular shopping hours for our students. We are seeking individuals who would be available during the day 9 am - 12 pm, 12 pm - 3 pm, 3 pm - 6 pm and from 6-9 pm. Success Store Volunteer has two roles in which it works. First, is as a stylist/personal shopper to our students as they shop to find the professional clothing they need for interviews and their jobs. Next, is to help sort/organize the clothing and refresh inventory on the store floor as needed. If items are pulled from a mannequin it is the responsibility of the Volunteer to either place a different item on the mannequin or notify staff so that it can be taken care of first thing the next day.
