In an effort to aid women in transition seeking to get back into the workforce, the Haddonfield, N.J.-based family law firm of Adinolfi and Goldstein is kicking off a professional clothing drive that will run in February and March 2011.
The initiative will benefit The Women's Opportunity Center of Burlington County, a non-profit organization that is committed to helping women gain economic self-sufficiency through education, job readiness, networking, outreach, referrals, and emotional support. The Center also promotes awareness of women's rights through public advocacy.
"Because of the type of law we practice, the attorneys at Adinolfi and Goldstein are very familiar with situations in which women want to – or need to - start a new career," said Amy Goldstein, co-founder and senior partner at Adinolfi and Goldstein. "We want to help them get back on their feet and standing tall. With the economy making workforce entry more difficult every day, we feel that spearheading this drive is a way to help open some doors for these women."
The public is invited to drop off the following items at the Adinolfi and Goldstein law office at 4 Kings Highway East, Haddonfield, N.J., between 9 am and 5 pm Monday through Friday:
- Professional attire, new or gently used, cleaned and on hangers
- Shoes, new or gently used
- Hosiery, new
- Handbags, new or gently used
- Cosmetics, new
All items should be fashion-appropriate to the times and geared toward the Spring season. Attire needs to be appropriate for women to wear on job interviews and in business professional environments.
The women's professional clothing drive is part of Adinolfi and Goldstein's commitment to community service and support of non-profit organizations. Robert Adinolfi, co-founder and senior partner of Adinolfi and Goldstein, is a regular speaker at the Women's Opportunity Center and provides initial consultations at no charge to women referred to the firm through the Center.
