As women around the world continue to be disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, Vionic Shoes is pleased to support Dress for Success® in inspiring hope and resilience in women through the "Your Hour, Her Power" campaign. Dress for Success serves an invaluable community contribution to the women who look to the non-profit to support them as they step forward in their careers. As a part of the campaign, Dress for Success recognizes Angela Caltagirone as a member of Bay Area Women in Power, for her outstanding leadership and advocacy of initiatives that help women thrive professionally and personally.

Dress for Success' annual Women's History Month and International Women's Day campaign, "Your Hour, Her Power" is inspired by the belief that when a woman has access to opportunities that can change her life, she becomes powerful beyond measure. By giving the equivalent of just one hour of your pay, you give a Dress for Success woman access to programs, services, and tools that will help her achieve economic advancement.

"I am passionate about mentoring and supporting women throughout their careers, and helping them create a strong network. I strive to do this with family, friends, and colleagues alike as well as pay it forward. I feel tremendous gratitude to be recognized by Dress for Success and to be a part of their meaningful work," says Angela Caltagirone, SVP and GM of Vionic Shoes.
