The Wear2Start Society helps women overcome barriers to success. We provide suitable clothing, shoes and accessories, as well as coordinating services such as haircuts and bra fittings for self-identified women who require assistance in obtaining clothing suitable for work, school and life. Clients come to the Boutique for a private personalized experience and are assisted by Consultants to create a suitable wardrobe from donations that have been carefully selected.
