If Wishes Were Dresses is a not-for-profit group; started in Napanee in 2011; we provide under-privileged girls in our community with the formal wear needed to attended their Graduation or Prom. Many girls would not attend these milestone functions because they do not have the appropriate attire.

If Wishes Were Dresses relies on the generous donations of gently used formal wear from the community to provide to these young ladies, free of charge. We try very hard to make these girls feel as special as possible. It is not just a dress, we guarantee a dress to every girl who applies to our group; and do our absolute best to make sure that they also have shoes, accessories and appropriate undergarments for their dress.

With increasing interest, this year for the 2014 Graduation and Prom season, If Wishes Were Dresses will be expanding from Napanee into Kingston.
