Mission TheNorthshoreFairy Godmother Project wants to grant every girls’ wish to go to the prom. Each year, high schools hope that all students who would like to attend the proms may do so; yet, some opt out due to financial hardships. TheNorthshoreFairy Godmother Project islooking for special people like YOUto help us make a difference in the lives of area teenage girls. What is the “Princess Boutique? The event everyone has been waiting for! The culmination of all our efforts from the Prom Gown Drives, to the collection of makeup, shoes, evening bags, jewelry, hair ornaments, and gift certificates, to the scheduling of the girls appointments, to the hair and makeup consultants, to the arrangements for transportation and MOST IMPORTANTLY, (with the help of their Fairy Godmother Personal Shopper) the girls get to select their gowns and accessories. TheNorthshoreFairy Godmother Project is a sisterof like organizations nation-wide. Founded in Chicago several years ago, there are sister teams from the East to the West Coast; from the Canadian border in the North to the Mexican border and the Gulf of Mexico and Florida in the South, all working toward the same goal: To Send Cinderella to the Prom Who makes up this Project? TheNorthshore Fairy Godmother Project enjoys over 60 (and growing) GE Volunteers and Women’s Network members and retirees as well as other volunteers from the Northshore who invite you to get involved in this very special, completely volunteer, non-profit project. What is the criteria and who decides who is deserving? High School Guidance Councilors, Class Advisors, DSS, Girls Inc., and other organizations who help teens, refer the girls to us. Girls must have a referral from a teacher or agency, be of good standing in high school, and financially unable to purchase prom items. All referrals will be kept confidential. How do we get these gowns and accessories? Local businesses, high school students and organizations have generously donated them through sponsored Prom Gown& Accessory Drives. You can do it too!
