Dress for Success is an international organization whose mission is to promote the economic independence of women by providing professional attire, a network of support, and career development tools t help them thrive in work and in life. In 1997, a law student received a $5,000 inheritance from her great grandfather, and Nancy Lubin transformed his hard-earned money into a gift for other women. With the help of three nuns from Spanish Harlem, she founded the first Dress for Success.  Dress for Success Racine was founded in 2004 and is a program of the YWCA.
