PHILADELPHIA – In its 20th year of empowering women in Philadelphia by providing free or low-cost professional clothing and job search support services, Career Wardrobe announces plans to expand programs ensuring that more people, including men and underemployed women, have access to services they need to transition to sustainable employment.
This fall, Career Wardrobe will be co-locating with its successful 5-year old upscale resale shop The Wardrobe Boutique at 1822 Spring Garden St. in the Logan Square/Fairmount section of Philadelphia. Combining locations will give the organization a 9,000-square-foot footprint that includes office and boutique dressing space for both men and women. The move will also give the organization increased capacity to open its program to those who are suffering from long-term unemployment and in danger of falling into poverty.
