About the Princess Project

The Princess Project promotes self-confidence and individual beauty by providing free prom dresses and accessories to high school girls who cannot otherwise afford them. Its effort is made possible through invaluable volunteer, donor and community support. 


How the Princess Project Works

Every year, The Princess Project seeks and receives thousands of beautiful new or nearly new dresses and accessories in EXCELLENT condition from individual donors and corporate partners

Hundreds of volunteers accept and organize these dresses and accessories to run an exciting giveaway event in the early spring for individual high school girls. Groups of ten or more teens who want to attend can make an appointment for a private boutique

Each year, hundreds of Bay Area girls attend the dress giveaway to find that new prom dress and those perfect accessories to make their high school prom a reality. And it’s all FREE! 

Since 2002, The Princess Project has served over 9,000 girls through the dedication of more than 700 volunteers and the generous start-up support of Coro Northern California. In 2005, The Princess Project became a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. 

2009

Expanding to its 4th location in sunny San Diego, The Princess Project served 3,384 in 2009! Every event had an overwhelming turnout of enthusiastic girls and volunteers…all ready to shop for a prom dress! Our organization was the recipient of Google Grants to help increase our girl outreach. 

 The Princess Project Dress Drive is on and we need your help to make prom a reality for many underpriviledged high school girls.  Please join us at Barbarella Restaurant for a fun filled happy-hour 4 to 6 pm.  Wine and appetizers will be served.  Please bring a nearly new dress or contribution – all contributions are tax deductible.
