How to Help
Remember your first suit and how it made you feel? "Clothes make the man" is an old saying, but it is also true for women. Thanks to your clothing and financial donations, these women are "dressed for success" and they know it. The story of a suit at Our Sisters' Closet is hope, self-confidence and a second chance.
