Challenge Description:

SuitUp Springfield is a new community organization focused on guiding the Young Men of Springfield, MA on professional attire and becoming professionally minded.

The challenge is they need to BOTH match inventory and connect with mentors – not only finding them but to actively keep track of their goals and progress with them. An app can do this!

Solution Benefit(s):

SuitUp Springfield is a new organization which is still building its inventory of suits, clients, and mentors. An app like this would accelerate their impact because not only will young men be able to learn how to dress appropriately for work, they will have a mentor communicating with them actively on their behaviors and accountability via the app.

Target Audience:

SuitUp Springfield mentors and clients

Target Audience Needs:

Disadvantaged young men need role models and mentors to help them become positive contributors to our society. Learning how to dress appropriately to get suitable work and having a mentor who will make them accountable for their behaviors as well as provide timely advice for those unfamiliar situations is needed.
