Our 2023 boutique days were filled with laughs, excitement, a few tears and lots of bells! So many youth said yes to the dress over the last couple of days and our hearts are so full!!
Thank you so much to all of our volunteers! Without them this project would not be possible! They are Rockstar's and made all of our youth feel so special.
Thank you Sarnia-Lambton! We were blown away by the amount of donations received this year and the interest in our project!

What is the Cinderella project? The Cinderella Project at Rebound collects new and almost-new formal dresses, shoes and accessories, and provide them free of charge to area school students who are unable to purchase their own prom or graduation attire.
We distribute the dresses and accessories during our scheduled Boutique Day. Each youth receives individual assistance from a volunteer personal shopper as they look through our inventory.
Our ultimate goal is to have a positive influence on youth by helping them to look and feel beautiful celebrating their accomplishments alongside their peers on these momentous occasions.
I need a dress! How do I get one? The Cinderella Project will host a Boutique day for all youth in need to visit and shop for the dress of their dreams. Registration will be available for the event, however a limited number of drop-in appointments will be available as well. Watch our social media for upcoming registration availability.
Our collection of dresses' and accessories are paused until 2024. Due to limited storage space, we will not be accepting more donations until the 2024 dress drive. Thank you!
