Nonprofit provides clothes to BHS nurses
Butler Memorial Hospital's Brady Street parking lot was filled with music, laughter and cheers for the first 'Dress for Success' mobile event Thursday.
Dress For Success Pittsburgh, a nonprofit organization that supplies gently used, high-end work clothes to women free of charge, approached the hospital about bringing its mobile store to Butler for health care workers.
Kris Bowser, the hospital's development and event manager, said 28 nurses signed up to “shop” and receive free, new scrubs from the organization in addition to clothes from 0 to 5X and accessories.
“It's great for morale,” Bowser said. “This is happy. There's so much that's not happy going on in there.”
