"Success in Style" (S.I.S.), is a non-profit organization that supports women and men who are pursuing employment by providing professional clothing for interviews and new jobs free of charge.

A team of six TVIH members volunteer one afternoon a month at the S.I.S. clothing store in Savage.  One volunteer said, "They have tons of clothing going through that place every day.  You cannot imagine the amount we processed - tagging, sizing, etc.  And they say they sell every bit of it.  When we left (and we didn't get through everything) someone was unloading at least another 10-12 huge trash bags of clothes.  Most of the articles are in excellent condition.  I was very impressed.  A great service project!!!"

To learn more about S.I.S. come listen to Diane Minor's story. Diane, a new TVIH member, is the volunteer Outreach Coordinator and consultant at S.I.S.  Her talk will include:
  • Organizational background
  • Mission
  • Clients
  • Stores
  • Outcomes
  • Future Plans
