In this Women Month, let’s take some time to put a spotlight on a fabulous organization!
Dress for Success Miami is a non profit organization that empowers women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.
I recently visited their office in Miami and know you I have to tell you all about it!

This fantastic organization helps women (and men) to transition towards self-sufficiency by addressing their social and economic needs in relation to work, home, and community. Each woman is a success story: she has gone from unemployment to economic independence.
