How To: Become a Princess Graduate

posted by The Princess Shop    |   June 7, 2016 09:41

The Princess Shop is now in its 9th Graduation Season in Saskatoon! What does this mean? It means we have helped over 628 young women in Saskatoon and surrounding areas to feel supported, celebrated, and beautiful on their graduation days. 

If you are planning to graduate in 2016, we want to hear from you. What many do not know is that in addition to our Grad Dress Program, we also offer mentorship opportunities, and scholarship opportunities for all current and past Princess Graduates. If you are considering applying to be a Princess Graduate, here's what you need to know: 

1. Print off our application form and submit it to info@theprincessshop.ca (or drop it off in person)

2. Once we have received your application, Karen from the Princess Shop will contact you to book your dress appointment with one of our volutneers!

3. At your dress appointment, you will have the opportunity to try on your favourite choices of our massive selection of new and gently used grad dresses! 

4. At your appointment, you will also have the opportunity to choose shoes, jewellery, and handbag for your special day.

*All Saskatoon Princess Graduates will have hair styling, makeup artistry, photography, and corsage provided by the Princess Shop, and our wonderful sponsors!

5. Princess graduates are eligible to join our mentorship program, The Fairy Godmother program, as well as our Next Chapter program, which has scholarship opportunities that are available exclusively for Princess Graduates!

6. In addition to your graduation experience, The Princess Shop also holds three events annually that are great opportunities for you to meet fellow Princess Graduates, our wonderful volunteer team, and receive all of the support, and information you might need about our mentorship and scholarship programs! We encourage all Princess Graduates to attend!

Calling All Fairy Godmothers!

Calling all Fairy Godmothers! The Princess Shop is now accepting applications for the Fairy Godmother Program! Are you interested in making a difference in a young woman’s life? The Fairy Godmother Program was developed to create positive impact through concrete relationships between Princess Graduates who come through The Princess Shop’s dress program and established women from the community. These relationships contribute to the successful transition out of high school and to the future accomplishments of the Princess Graduates. The importance of friendship and guidance, something seemingly simple, and the positive effect this can have on a young woman is life changing. A consistent friend to encourage and believe in a Princess Graduate not only boosts her confidence but helps her to realize and achieve her dreams.  

The Fairy Godmother Program runs from September – March, getting together once a month for a fun activity as a group! Fairy Godmothers meet their Princess Graduates at the annual Perfectly Pink BBQ in July, with an additional opportunity to spend time as a match and meet the rest of the wonderful ladies in the program in August before it officially starts in September.

We look forward to meeting you!
