Suited to Succeed (STS) collects business clothing through company-sponsored clothing drives, individual donations and community events and offers them to women transitioning from welfare and/or training programs

to employment.  Business attire is requested. However, collected clothing that is not appropriate for interviews is either donated to other local charities or sold at our monthly clothing sales.

STS works closely with several job-training programs throughout the greater Baltimore region, known as our Referral Partners, which refer the women from their programs to STS when they are ready to begin the interview process.  During the first appointment at STS, a client is assisted in selecting two business outfits, which can include a suit, blouse, shoes, and other accessories.  When she secures a position, she is invited back to select two additional outfits with the goal of creating a business wardrobe.  Since its start, Suited to Succeed has

provided business clothing to more than 4,000 Maryland women!

In addition to clothing, STS provides related workshops that support the job training provided to clients by our Referral Partners. Topics have included: Your Professional Image, Time Management, Self Esteem, Success in

the First 90 Days of Your New Job and Business Etiquette, as well as FDIC written and approved Money Smart Modules.  Since beginning these workshops in September 2000, STS has offered training to over 550 Maryland women!
