2009's Best Charity in Orange County
Named "2009 Orange County Charity of the Year" by OC Weekly

Working Wardrobes, an Orange County Charity Organization, empowers men, women and young adults in crises to confidently enter the workforce through career development and wardrobe services.

Each year we serve over 5,000 clients from a wide spectrum of backgrounds, including Welfare-to-Work, alcohol & substance abuse, domestic violence, transitional homelessness, catastrophic illness and other life crises.

With a donation of just $20 - one dollar for each year - you will make a major impact on the work being done every day to get our clients back to work.

$20 could buy you:

  • Four lattes
  • Two movie tickets
  • Manicure

Or you could literally change someone's life!

Working Wardrobes is helping 5,000 men, women and young adults get back to work this year, and we need your support.

Would you consider some options?

  1. Your own $20 donation
  2. Your $20 donation each month
  3. Asking 20 of your friends to support your cause
  4. Adding one or two zeros to your donation!
  Amount:

Whatever choice you make, please know how much we thank you. And how very much each and every one of our clients thank you, too!

AND now we have moved into a 16,500 square foot multipurpose Center in Costa Mesa to serve thousands more clients - definitely a place to visit often.
