Corporate Partnerships

27 years of impact in Metro Vancouver. Your support takes us further.

Since 1999, we've served more than 48,000 women and gender-diverse individuals, generating $2.4 billion in cumulative economic impact. Corporate partners at every level have made this possible. Here's how your organisation can be part of it.

Our vision is a world where every self-identifying woman is able to achieve economic mobility, empowering her to strengthen herself, her family, and her community. None of this happens without partners who believe in it.

Introducing

The 5Ds of Success

Five ways we support women on their journey.

Every woman we work with moves through a journey:

She arrives with a dream of something better. She dresses for the job ahead. She develops career and life skills that stay with her. She drives forward through setbacks and milestones. And her story, when shared, helps move the next woman forward. Your partnership funds every stage of that journey.

In FY24-25 alone, we supported over 2,584 women and gender-diverse individuals across Metro Vancouver through 4,623 units of service delivered by 486 active volunteers.

Corporate Giving

Program-designated donations let your company directly support the area of greatest impact for your team: professional styling services, career workshops, leadership development, or mentorship programs. Partnerships start at $5,000 and are tailored to align with your goals.

Sponsorship & Fundraising Campaigns

Sponsor the Success Luncheon, our Volunteer Appreciation events, or one of our annual fundraising campaigns around International Women’s Day or Year End. Event sponsorships start at $3,500. Fundraising campaign opportunities start at $10,000.

Cause Marketing & Events

Launch an in-store or online campaign that donates a percentage of sales or a set amount per purchase. Or name Dress for Success Vancouver as your charity of choice at your company holiday party event. Both are flexible, high-visibility formats that work for organisations of any size.
