Mission: The mission of Perfectly Suited is to expose, equip and inspire youth and young adults with real life resources that will empower them through the process of taking charge of their lives.

Results: Founded in 2004 Perfectly Suited set out on a mission to bring interview appropriate outfits, job readiness skills and soft skills to females in need. From 2004 - 2010 we accomplished just that by providing over 550 suits and interview ready outfits; over 600 females attended job readiness workshops; and 285 confirmed employment within 45 days of completing the program. Even though we were small, we were making a difference. In 2010, Perfectly Suited was faced with several challenges and the decision was made to suspend services. However, we never loss the desire to help our community. The time was used for reflection, redirection, and growth. In 2020, we were able to successfully reestablish our 501c3 status, now with hard work and dedication, Perfectly Suited is back and determined to be bigger, stronger and better. Our focus has changed slightly but our goal is still to empower and inspire.
