Career Wardrobe Information

The Wardrobe is a nonprofit organization with the mission to eliminate clothing insecurity and curb fashion waste while empowering people for success. Because our supporters give and shop, 6,000 people annually leave The Wardrobe shining full of confidence in their new outfits. This year we are growing as we integrate Wings for Success in Chester County into our organization in order to expand education and coaching services throughout the region. Whether someone is in need of an outfit for work or everyday life or coaching to help them build their career, they receive free support and STAR Treatment - Styling, Time, Advice, and Respect. Our Wardrobes in Philadelphia, Delaware, and Chester Counties provide a sustainable shopping experience for our supporters who share the sales floor with our participants while they select their outfits at no charge. For those outside our area, we offer the Wardrobe Box both as a seasonal subscription box similar to Stitch Fix for shoppers or personally styled for free for participants. Each year we "upcycle" 200,000+ pounds of gently used or new clothing to provide a stable source of free quality clothing for our participant's needs whether it's workwear for a job search and employment or casual clothing for everyday. Every article of clothing donated to The Wardrobe is ethically repurposed for free guest services, resale inventory, or recycled with our partner Helpsy.
