A world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women’s equality.

This International Women’s Day support our mission to raise $250,000 to transition more than 700 women to face their job search with the confidence, clothing, and tools to get hired.

The ask is simple but the impact is huge – all you need to do is pledge one hour of your pay to help a woman who is struggling to achieve employment and financial stability.

International Women’s Day

March 8 is International Women’s Day, and at The Global Beauty Group we celebrated by teaming up with Dress for Success – the charity organisation that works tirelessly to empower disadvantaged women in Australia and around the globe through the supply of professional clothing, career development tools and support resources that help women gain, or regain, their financial independence.

How we’re getting involved (and how you can, too!)

Empower Hour is a fantastic initiative by Dress for Success that gives everyday Australians the opportunity to “change a woman’s life in just 5 minutes”.

How it works: We encouraged our team to each donate 1 hour out of their yearly salary to help improve the employability of disadvantaged women. Our contributions will help fund programs such as career development workshops and coaching sessions, and help equip women with basic things like professional work attire and styling sessions, so they can attend job interviews with dignity and confidence.

Donating just 1 hour of pay is all it takes to make a difference in someone else’s life. We invite our peers in the beauty industry to get together and celebrate Empower Hour with us.

Clothing Drive

We’ also held a clothing drive at The Global Beauty Group HQ to add a little fun and fashion to International Women’s Day, all in the name of a good cause. We donated professional work and office attire, that’s still in great condition to our local Dress for Success Boutique. The Dress for Success Boutique is staffed by passionate volunteers who work to professionally ‘suit up’ disadvantaged women looking to enter the workforce.

Why not hold a clothing drive at your salon, spa, or clinic? You could even up the fun factor by getting team members to ‘dress for success’ in an outfit that makes them feel empowered, confident and beautiful! Click here for more info.
