Women's Leadership Circle: Calling All Fairy Godmothers!

February 27, 2026 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM (CST)

Description


Join us to volunteer as a Fairy Godmother, getting ready for the YWCA Elgin's "Cinderella's Closet" event. This heartwarming experience helps make prom dreams a reality for high school students. The cost is $30 per person for this luncheon service project, with a donation being made to the YWCA as part of the luncheon cost.

We'll help sort the dresses and accessories for the March 7 and 8 event, which transforms into a magical formal-wear boutique, offering a delightful shopping experience for high schoolers. Volunteers are needed for that weekend, and you can sign up on the YWCA website. DO YOU HAVE EXTRA HANGERS - silver topped crystal or black hangers (no wire or plastic) YOU CAN BRING AND DONATE TO THE Y?

Dresses, jewelry, purses, shoes, and make-up are available for a $35 donation or free with a referral from their high school guidance counselor. At the event, a personal shopper will help the high schoolers as they select from thousands of beautiful dresses in the latest current styles, many new with tags, in sizes ranging from petite to plus sizes. Once a dress is found, they will select jewelry and other accessories to complete the outfit. New for 2026, the event will also offer suits, tuxedos, button-down shirts, ties, bow ties, suspenders, and cummerbunds. All are welcome. 

Our Women's Leadership Circle is a collaboration of women leaders to help you build relationships and extend your personal and professional development. We'll meet monthly to provide you with an opportunity to collaborate and celebrate with a charismatic group of women representing many sectors of business, education, health care, and non-profits. 

DON’T FORGET YOUR BUSINESS CARDS because you’ll meet new friends quickly and effectively, who can benefit your career and lead to new opportunities! We bring you together to form meaningful, valuable connections, and you are welcome to have a colleague or friend join you, so please share this email!

We're unable to issue a refund if your reservation is not canceled 72 hours in advance because we've already paid for it.

Footage captured by the Chamber and/or its official photographer may be posted on social media, shared with media outlets, and/or used in future print and electronic promotional materials.
