Fashion Dash 2026: Our Professional Organizers Take On 1,000 Pieces of Clothing for The Wardrobe
At The Organizing Professionals, we spend every day helping clients across Greater Philadelphia and the Main Line sort, organize and let go of what they no longer need. This October, we’re putting those skills to work for a cause close to our hearts.
What Is The Wardrobe?
The Wardrobe is a Philadelphia-area nonprofit that provides free clothing to people in our community who need it most. Whether someone is preparing for a job interview, starting over after a difficult season, or simply needs a warm coat for winter, The Wardrobe helps them walk out feeling confident and cared for.
I’m proud to serve on The Wardrobe’s board, and I’ve seen firsthand the difference this organization makes in people’s lives.
The Fashion Dash Challenge: 1,000 Pieces in 2 Hours
Every October, The Wardrobe hosts its annual Fashion Dash fundraiser. On Wednesday, October 28th, the TOP team will volunteer our time to sort through 1,000 pieces of donated clothing in just 2 hours. That’s more than 8 pieces a minute!
Sorting and categorizing is what our professional organizers do best, so this challenge feels tailor made for us.
Help Us Raise $1,000
Our goal is to raise $1,000 this month, a dollar for every piece of clothing we sort. Every gift makes a difference:
- $10 sponsors 10 pieces
- $25 sponsors a full rack
- $100 sponsors a whole bin of clothing headed to someone in need

Shop The Wardrobe’s New Malvern Store
The Wardrobe has just opened a new store in Malvern, PA, relocated from the Exton Mall. Address: 235 Lancaster Ave, Malvern, PA 19355
Many people don’t realize that anyone can shop at The Wardrobe. Every purchase is what makes it possible for The Wardrobe to provide clothing free of charge to those in need. The racks are full of gently used clothing and great brands, and I often find designer pieces, new with tags, at a fraction of the original price. You get a fabulous find, and someone in our community gets the help they need.
Why Giving Back Matters to Our Team
After 20 years as Philadelphia’s professional organizing and move management company, we’ve learned how deeply our belongings shape how we feel. An organized closet brings calm. The right outfit brings confidence. The Wardrobe gives that gift to people who need it most, and our team is honored to be part of it.
We’ll share photos and results after the Fashion Dash, so check back to see whether we beat the clock!
