Peggy Buckles was one of our Founding Fairies and she was known for having a special place in her heart for helping people. In her career as a job coach in the Special Ed classroom at Upper Arlington High School, she had a knack for getting everyone to shine in their own way. She felt strongly about giving back and helping people feel good about themselves.
We honor her memory with the Peggy Buckles Memorial Scholarship. Each year, we put a call out to all students eligible who receive a dress through Cinderella's Closet Boutique to apply for this scholarship. We are excited to announce that our two recipients fit the bill of reflecting Peggy's warm heart and spirit.
Please congratulate Bella Jackson and Katelyn Wynkoop as our 2025 Peggy Buckles Memorial Scholarship Winners!


We wanted to extend a heartfelt thank you to our volunteers, students, parents/guardians, and all the supporters of the Fairy Goodmothers' Cinderella Closet Boutique!
This year, we served 1,083 awesome students from all around Ohio and beyond!
We love what we do and we are thrilled for another year of making magic for prom.
While the Boutique is now closed for the season, keep an eye on this space for future events and fundraisers!
- The Fairy Goodmothers Board
dedicated to promoting confidence and self-esteem in Central Ohio High School youth. We achieve this by providing formal dresses and accessories to those who lack the means to purchase these items for themselves, thus enabling these youths to attend Prom and feel special during this exciting time.
You too can be a Fairy Goodmother. Visit our Donate, Sponsorship and Volunteer pages for information about these opportunities.
