Giving back to the community is an important hallmark of success, and it’s especially important to the women in our organization. In fact, most members are active in their communities through schools, churches and other local groups. The Alliance as a whole also looks for opportunities to help women in the communities we serve, as well. That’s why we support the following:

DRESS FOR SUCCESS

Founded in New York City in 1997, Dress for Success is an international not-for-profit organization that helps women find jobs and remain employed. Each Dress for Success client receives one suit when she has a job interview and can return for a second suit or separates when she finds work. While best known for providing suits, employment retention programs are the cornerstone of the organization. Finding work is only one step in a woman’s journey toward economic independence; remaining employed and building a rewarding career are essential if a woman is to become self-sufficient.

MOLLY EFRON FUND

This scholarship fund was created in memory of Molly Efron, an early member of the Alliance and a role model for technical women at Xerox. Ms. Efron pioneered a job-sharing program at Xerox in order to stay home with her first daughter, Eve.
