About us

Women Giving Back supports women and children in crisis on a first step to stability by providing quality clothing at no cost, assisted by a caring and committed community. Founded in 2007 by a core group of building industry sales and marketing professionals, the goal initially was to supplement the great work HomeAid Northern Virginia does in renovating shelters by helping transitionally homeless women and children get on their feet with clothes to help them enter the workplace and fit in at school. Since 2015, Women Giving Back has been a standalone 501(c)3 and continues to expand its outreach in the Greater DC Metro area. We have grown from working from the back of a small retail operation to now where we have over 14,000 square feet of warehouse, boutique, and available office space. We proudly watch as our clients persevere, thrive, increase their self-confidence and enable themselves to improve their lives and achieve independence. This increased self-esteem leads to an obvious resilience, poise, and pep in their steps. We build confidence and self-esteem by providing quality clothing, school supplies, food, toiletries, and other essentials paired with supportive services to foster their return to self-sufficiency. Our vision is to be the most impactful provider of free clothing and emergency support services to women and children in the region who are homeless, living in local shelters, transitional housing facilities, or safe houses, or living at or below the poverty line – including those coming out of incarceration, fleeing domestic violence, and immigrants and refugees adjusting to life in our region.
