Dress for Success Honors Jenny Wassenaar from Trivium for the 2022 Your Hour, Her Power Campaign

Dress for Success’ second annual Your Hour, Her Power® campaign kicks off March 1 in celebration of Women’s History month and International Women’s Day. This year, Dress for Success is excited to bring back “31 Days of Women in Power” for a second year to inspire hope and resilience among women by honoring groundbreaking women in leadership positions across various industries.
For March 30, we honor Jenny Wassenaar, Chief Sustainability Officer at Trivium Packaging and a seasoned global leader with experience from international brands like Shell and Avery Dennison. Sustainability is her true passion as she aims to preserve the planet for generations to come. Under Jenny’s leadership Trivium has received a number of prestigious accreditations notably a Platinum rating by EcoVadis, the world’s leading business sustainability rating agency.
She says, “I believe that by empowering women, we empower everybody, men, women, young and old, different nationalities and different backgrounds. Everybody wins. Therefore, I could not be prouder to have the opportunity to support Dress for Success and [their] Your Hour, Her Power campaign. Now it's time to open the doors for others to make a change. It's time to build a home for the new leaders of this world. When you give, you get. Let's shape an empowered future for everybody for generations to come.”
She says, “Supporting change makers that align with our purpose like Dress for Success is important because it uplifts our communities, enabling women across all industries and backgrounds to have equal access to professional development, career opportunities and networking. Support is critical in building our workforce of today and for tomorrow. Drawing from my own experience in the workplace, I recognize that as a white woman and an executive, my role comes with privilege. I feel an enormous responsibility to help advance inclusion for other women by using that privilege and that power.”
By giving the equivalent of just one hour of your pay, you not only give a Dress for Success woman access to programs, services, and tools that will help her achieve economic advancement, but you also join us in celebrating female leaders for the pivotal role they play in driving business and economic gains, and social and cultural change.
