Because of you, clients walk into interviews with confidence.

Every success story we celebrate starts with you—the person who chooses to give so a neighbor can rebuild their life through work. On GivingTuesday (Tuesday, December 2, 2025), your generosity becomes coaching, job training, and head-to-toe wardrobing that help clients show up strong, land interviews, and say “yes” to opportunity. When you give, you are the reason someone’s first day on the job becomes possible.

What is GivingTuesday?

GivingTuesday is the Global Day of Generosity held each year on the first Tuesday after U.S. Thanksgiving (right after Black Friday and Cyber Monday). Since 2012, it’s invited people everywhere to do good in their own communities. This year, it’s December 2, 2025—and your action will directly support clients working hard to step into stability and purpose.

Two high-impact ways to get involved (starting now)

1) Dine for Good with Lazy Dog (Dec 1–6)

From Mon, Dec 1 to Sat, Dec 6, three OC Lazy Dog locations—Irvine, Orange, Brea—donate 15% of your purchase to Working Wardrobes when you use your location code (dine-in or online).

Join us on Monday, December 1 at Lazy Dog Irvine for our GivingTuesday kickoff! Bring the flyer or use the code Irvine01 at checkout to send 15% back to Working Wardrobes. Can’t make it? No worries. You can still dine any time Dec 1–6 at Irvine, Orange, or Brea—dine-in or online—just use your location’s fundraising code and your meal powers coaching, training, and head-to-toe wardrobing.

2) Start Your Fundraising Page (rally your network today)

You don’t have to wait for Dec 2. Launch your peer-to-peer page now and invite friends, family, and coworkers to join you.

  • Create your page: set a simple goal, add a photo, and write 1–2 lines about why this matters to you.
  • Invite your “first five”: Reach out to five friends, family members, or coworkers to be your first donors.
  • Build momentum: make it fun—start a friendly competition (between departments, teams, or families), set easy milestones, and celebrate whoever raises the most.

What you’ll make possible

  • Confidence at the door: interview coaching so clients can tell their story with pride.

  • Dignity in the mirror: head-to-toe wardrobing so clothes never block opportunity.

  • Offers on the table: skills training that leads to jobs and stability for families.

Save the date—December 2. Plan a Lazy Dog visit (Dec 1–6) and start your fundraiser now so your network is ready to lift clients up with you.

Thank you for being the hero in our clients’ stories. Because of you, job seekers don’t just hope for a fresh start—they get one.
