The Cinderella Affair

The Cinderella Affair was created with the idea that every girl deserves to feel like a princess.

For the past 25 years our organization has distributed new and gently used prom dresses that are absolutely free to girls that are juniors or seniors in high school so they can feel like a princess at prom.

 

The Cinderella Affair has donated over 10,000 dresses.
Accepting More Clothing Donations Soon

For this year’s event, we have over 3,000 dresses in all colors and styles which range in size from 0 to 30 to choose from.

There are East Valley Women’s League “Fairy Godmothers” who are on site to help girls find their perfect dress!
