Our story

Many of our Go For Glass members come from less affluent households, where building a business professional wardrobe for competitions can be a significant challenge. In these communities, even finding quality secondhand options is often difficult. We recognized that gap—and set out to address it. While the program is currently focused on Washington State, members have already expressed interest in launching similar efforts in other regions.

Our goal is simple: provide high-quality professional clothing at no cost. We offer a wide range of sizes, along with guidance on how to combine pieces into a polished, competition-ready look. Our inventory includes approximately 1,500 clothing items, along with shoes, jewelry, ties, and belts. The collection emphasizes trusted brands such as J.Crew, Talbots, Ann Taylor, Anne Klein, Calvin Klein, and similar labels.

While our initial focus was supporting DECA members, we launched later in the season than planned and missed the pre-state competition window. Instead, we piloted the program at a local high school in Bothell, refining the experience ahead of the next DECA season. During that pilot, we helped dozens of students find outfits, including several who were so enthusiastic they wore their new suits for the rest of the school day.

Our primary focus remains DECA students, with potential expansion to graduating seniors preparing for interviews. We are currently selecting a location for our next full event. If your school or DECA area would like to be considered, please reach out.
