About Career Wardrobe

Career Wardrobe is a nonprofit social enterprise that uses clothing and professional development to empower unemployed individuals to work.  The store is the cornerstone of the program and provides professional clothing to individuals in transition.

Job seekers can shop at no cost with a referral or for a small fee if they are not receiving government assistance.  The Wardrobe Resale locations recently re-opened to the public for safe shopping on great deals on designer and contemporary clothing with all sales supporting our services.

In response to the COVID-19 crisis, Career Wardrobe developed a new program: OutFIT For Work. OutFIT for Work expands access to Career Wardrobe’s services by offering anyone who has lost their job or income during this crisis access to its full range of services, including receiving an outfit for work along with one-on-one professional development support and help them find a new job, no referral required.

About Smiles for Success

Over the years, client feedback in the form of ticket survey responses has been a critical factor in helping us improve our services and overall client satisfaction and success. In an effort to keep a strong focus on this feedback and even improve on the overall rate of response, IT Solutions launched Smiles for Success in 2019, with a local charity being the beneficiary for every survey response we receive.
