International Women's Day is 8, March 2023

Mark your calendars!

Empower Hour will be back for its 7th year in 2023 and we're on a mission to make it our biggest campaign yet, supporting even more women in Australia into employment.

The ask is simple, but the impact is huge – for the month of March to celebrate International Women's Day, we ask Australians to pledge one hour of pay to help a woman overcome the barrier of unemployment, supporting her journey to financial independence for herself and her family.

Dress for Success exists to level the playing for women entering or re-entering the workforce.

Thanks to our Empower Hour supporters in 2022,
Dress for Success can support an additional 700 women in Australia 
to face their job search with the confidence, clothing, and tools to get hired.
