Every dollar you donate goes towards providing formal grad attire for at-risk youth.
The You Wear it Well…Just for Grads Society provides formal graduation attire – at no cost - to at-risk students in the lower mainland of BC. Most of our students have endured hardships that make attending school difficult, and the prospect of attending graduation is a financial impossibility for them and their families. We provide so much more than ‘just a grad outfit' – students who participate in our program are more likely to stay in school and graduate.
Our work culminates in a “Boutique Day” each year, when grads are invited to choose a gown/tuxedo and accessories. We also provide hair styling and make up services, professional photos, snacks, and alterations. Students are invited to bring a guest and are assigned a ‘Personal Assistant’ (volunteer) for the day, whose job is to make sure the student feels pampered and special during their visit. Everything the students choose is free, and is theirs to keep.
