Don't we all wish we had one of these!? Help underprivileged NY women get a fresh start. Drop off outgrown, tired-of, or could- never-find-the-right-match pants and other office-y clothes, shoes, bags, or jewelry to Bottomless Closet NYC. This nonprof gives disadvantaged women in New York a leg up on getting a nine-to-five, but it's not your typical Goodwill dumping ground. BC not only fits working girls-to-be with interview-appropriate outfits, plus three extras, but also preps them for interviews and hosts workshops on topics like networking and financial management. It also has a book club (this month's read: The Great Gatsby), and stays available for work-related questions and support even after they land a gig so that all bases are...covered.
Bottomless Closet NYC, 545 Eighth Ave. b/t 37th and 38th Sts., 12th Fl.; Drop-off times: M-F, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. or call (212-563-2499) for special arrangements.

About Ladies Lotto
Ladies Lotto is a finely-cultivated international lifestyle and networking community aimed at developing the professional and personal success of independent women. As a collective, Ladies Lotto shifts the paradigm in the way women work together creatively to build strategies of allegiance and growth. Activated through culturally relevant projects and positive social impact campaigns, Ladies Lotto participates in the creation of emerging cultures and communities - all while engaging relevant social beneficiaries. With chapters in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco, and members hailing from Sydney to Paris, Ladies Lotto is a more than just a community but a cultural force.
Operating under a simple yet revolutionary vision of promoting alliance amongst intelligent women, Ladies Lotto, born with a simple email from Founder Natalie Blacker to 25 women, has been enhancing relationships to help a predominantly creative set become centered and whole. Ladies Lotto’s ongoing motivation, point blank, is to shake up how women do business. Since its inception in 2006, the group has put together over 200 events and panels with emerging, trendsetting brands to international giants like LVMH. In addition, the collective has fervently benefitted women directly through collaborations with non-profit organizations like Planned Parenthood and charity:water.
Driven by an overwhelming emphasis on relationships within the network, Ladies Lotto is a truly revolutionary and unique concept that continues to set a new global standard for how women organize and uplift their lives. The individuals who join Ladies Lotto are not textbook social climbers - membership consists of the finest, open-minded and socially-savvy trailblazers within their respective industries.
Existing to facilitate a nurturing collective where members help one another in their efforts to advance, Ladies Lotto fosters entrepreneurial enterprise while building extensive cultural and art related public projects. From a broader perspective, the collective engrains its members with a sustainable perspective which acts as a positive force not only in their careers but in their overall lives.
Founder Natalie Blacker's future plans for Ladies Lotto include expanding the overall brand and its network into new major markets, as well as the development of a grant foundation to further its members, an annual conference of member-driven lectures and forums, and collective productions in both music and print media.
