Financial literacy opens possibilities for women as it enables them to make informed decisions, achieve independence, and build long-term economic security. Women often face unique financial challenges, such as the gender pay gap, career gaps due to caregiving, and longer life expectancies. By better understanding budgeting, saving, investing, and credit management, they can confidently navigate these personal and professional challenges. At Dress for Success Worldwide, we provide unemployed and underemployed women with in-person workshops to achieve their life and career goals, as well as help close the financial literacy gender gap. Support of Dress for Success also enables us to provide no-fee, online financial education and literacy workshops throughout the year.
