Looking to help out in your community or earn some volunteer hours for school? The Ladder Alliance provides more than job skills training to the women we serve - we also offer access to "The Success Store," a boutique where women can find new and gently used clothing and accessories for job interviews and work attire.
We need volunteers to help dress our students, provide their opinion on the fit and style of the attire, and maintain the cleanliness of the Success Store! We ask each volunteer to commit to Volunteering once a month for a minimum six month period.
The Success Store is open:
- Wednesdays from 2pm- 4pm & 5:15p - 6:15 pm
- Thursdays from 11:30-12:30pm & 5:15p - 6:15 pm
