T. Rowe Price Grant Proposal

I would like to pitch a “Dress for Success” kind of program to the Women and Children in need connected to AWE. AWE already has some programs to help with job applications and resumes, but do they have professional clothing to wear to the interviews? This program potentially could be volunteers who help them go out shopping for clothing and other items. It could also potentially focus on the children in the fall for a “back to school” shopping day for clothing or school supplies like notebooks and bookbags. A day to go somewhere, like goodwill, with help to get specific things they need to further themselves professionally. Dressing for success could also include resume building, linkedin classes, mock interviews, and interview daycare to make sure that they can be as successful as possible if the funds can support the program.
