Wings for Success

Wings for Success was formed in 1997 by a community of women who recognized that not having work-appropriate attire was a barrier to finding a job. In addition to serving the unemployed, Wings for Success provides clothing for the under-employed/working-poor, and workshops that equip women with skills to maintain long-term employment or advance their careers. Equipping over 1,000 women a year, we embrace the differences of the the women we serve and seek to empower them regardless of age, race, religion physical abilities, economic status, gender identity, sexual preference, citizenship status, political affiliation, or other difference. Our actions are guided by a strategic plan that is consistent with our mission: to empower women in need to pursue employment and economic security through apparel, advice and advocacy. All decisions are made with ongoing commitment to the highest principles and practices of strong non-profit management and governance as demonstrated by fulfilling the requirements of the standards administered by the Pennsylvania Association of Nonprofit Organizations.
