We had a fantastic Suit-Up event this year, and we are so grateful to everyone who made it a success!

A special thank you to WSECU for sponsoring the event, to our partners at JCPenney for hosting us, and to the amazing 51 staff who supported students throughout the evening.

Suit-Up is a wonderful opportunity for 51 students to build their professional wardrobes at a fraction of the cost. In addition to steep in-store discounts, students received an extra 30% off—and thanks to WSECU, over 80 students were given gift cards to help purchase:

• Suits and professional dresses
• Dress pants and slacks
• Sport coats and blazers
• Dress shoes and socks
• Professional bags and briefcases
• Ladies’ undergarments

JCPenney stylists and 51 Career Center staff were on hand to help students find the right fit, get measured for suits, and feel confident about their professional appearance.

Thank you again to everyone who participated—we cannot wait to see you at next year’s Suit-Up event!
