Helping Hands
The Princess Shop is always in need of a few Helping Hands. There are odd jobs throughout the year that sometimes require some additional help from others. In the past year this has included help at fundraising events, and at Dress Appointments! In this case, we will send an email to our database of Helping Hands - so these individuals are called on only a few times per year. To be added to our Helping Hands list, please email info@theprincessshop.ca.
Call Force
Many opportunities exist for The Princess Shop's past and current graduates. Our Call Force keeps in touch with Princess Graduates to promote opportunities like scholarships or mentorship support, update their contact information and invite them to events we are holding. Call Force volunteers give about 3-5 hours per month on their own time and are supported by a member of the Volunteer Team. If you are interested in volunteering on our Call Force, please email info@theprincessshop.ca.
