Mission Update: Image is Everything

Image Is Everything

    The old maxim that says "Image is everything" holds true in Hollywood--and in the job market, too!  In many cases, an employer's hiring decision is made in the first few seconds of a job interview!   As one of Wayside Christian Mission's goals is placing our women and men back into the workplace, we sought the help of Chris Fulkerson.  Ms. Fulkerson is owner of VIP Studio, a professional wardrobe consultant, freelance writer, professional fashion show producer, sought after speaker, and owner of Belle Madame Modeling School and Agency.  Educated at the London Image Institute, Chris Fulkerson has all the right credentials for helping our ladies in their quest to find meaningful employment! 

 

     Referred to us by mutual friend and Wayside supporter Joyce King Jennings, Ms. Fulkerson led a dynamic presentation on the finer points of fashion that wins points with employers!  The ladies in our recovery program loved Chris' simple approach to fashion on a shoestring budget.  She also referred our ladies to Dress for Success, an organization that helps women in need with clothing appropriate for the workplace!   Your support of Wayside Christian Mission helps women ensnared by the ravages of substance abuse and alcoholism return to the community as sober, productive citizens. With God's help and your financial support, Wayside Christian Mission will continue mending broken lives!  We are grateful to Chris Fulkerson for donating her time and talents to the wonderful ladies God has placed in our care.
