The WGirls NYC 2010 Ties and Tiaras
03/11/2010

The WGirls NYC 2010 Ties and Tiaras

On Thursday March 11th, The NYC Chapter of the WGIRLS INC. celebrated the addition of their newest program Operation Fairy Dust.

Over 200 guests attended the Ties and Tiaras which raised funds to help outfit economically disadvantaged girls for their prom. Guests wore ties or tiaras and enjoyed open bar, delicious cupcakes from Aunt Butchies, and bid on fabulous raffle prizes including Oscar De La Renta gowns, a Marc Jacobs handbag, and more....

The Happy Hour event raised over $5000 dollars for the program which is set to give dresses away at Brooklyn Borough Hall to over 1000 girls in late April. The hall will be transformed into a magical shopping experience for the girls complete with "Fairy Godmother" personal shoppers, free accessories, lots of pink tulle, and plenty of smiles. For more information on how you or your company can help make this event a success by donating jewelery, make-up, handbags, please contact the WGIRLS at contact@wgirls.org

The WGIRLS are still collecting gently used formal wear to ensure that every girl get the dress of her dreams. If you would like to donate your dress please visit wgirls.org for drop off locations in NYC or contact the WGIRLS for drop off locations around the country.
