Join Spinsters of San Francisco (SoSF) in volunteering with the The Princess Project!
What is The Princess Project?
The Princess Project is a Bay Area nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting self-confidence and individual beauty by providing free prom dresses and accessories to high school teens who may not otherwise be able to afford them. Through their annual Dress Giveaway events, teens receive dresses, styling support, and encouragement to help them feel confident and celebrated on their special night. Volunteers are free to leave at 1pm but are encouraged to stay until 2:30.
Potential new members and active members are all welcome to join us for this meaningful volunteer opportunity!
