Why Get Involved?
The Y.E.S! Concept – Launched in New York in 2005, Y.E.S.! now has several branches worldwide that provide professional women with a chance to connect with each other while increasing the awareness of the overall mission of Dress for Success. Additionally, the main purpose for Y.E.S.! has become raising funds for programs that help disadvantaged women gain self sufficiency.
The Y.E.S! Vision – To become the most innovative networking group in town, to reach out and help professional women feel part of something that is both fun and meaningful, and to enable Dress for Success to operate and help change the lives of women throughout the community.
How Y.E.S! Works - Y.E.S! is run entirely by volunteers; we have a great group of women who give their time, energy and ideas to provide value to Y.E.S! members.
Y.E.S! members come from a variety of industries throughout Seattle. These women share a mutual desire to give back to the community by helping others achieve their own successes. We bring women together in a relaxed atmosphere to network professionally and socially and participate in unique networking opportunities where business and philanthropy can meet in style.
