Bridesmaid Dress Donation Resources

Thanks to reader Kirsten H. for catching this! In the book we suggest that one of the things you can do with your collection of never-going-to-wear-it-again bridemaid dresses is donate them. When we went to The Tyra Banks Show last year, two of the guests were from an organization called The Princess Project, which takes donated gowns (from the last few years only--don't try to dump your 1995 prom dress with them) and makes them available to girls who don't have the resources to buy their own prom and school dance dresses.

In the book, we mistakenly called it The Cinderella Project, because there is actually a regional organizations that does the same thing:

Stay tuned for the upcoming tale from our Annals of Being a Bridesmaid where the dress is not exactly donation-worthy, unless the prom was being held at Medieval Times.
