Princess for a Day
March 01, 2020

2020 will mark our 12th year of providing foster and community children alike the opportunity to experience a day of pampering and fun. In 2019, we catered to more than 250 “princesses” and we expect to surpass that number in 2020! This is a regal gathering for all the children in the land. This event is to celebrate the children both in foster care and not by giving them the royal treatment. This includes being pampered, adorned in a new outfit fit for royalty, and a fancy tea party.
