2025 COTILLIOn program
Cotillion Orientation
It is time for the premier event in DeKalb County: The Forever Pink Foundation, Inc. annual Prevue of Celestial Pearls Debutante Cotillion! The members of the Foundation would like to thank DeKalb County and Greater Atlanta for partnering with us for over 40 years. We could not make this impact without the support of the community. To that end, we cordially invite you to our “Cotillion Orientation,” where you will have the opportunity to obtain information on our Program and the requirements for participation and presentation. The debutante season culminates with a Debutante presentation at the Renaissance Concourse Atlanta Airport Hotel.
Being a Cotillion participant requires time, hard work, and dedication, but you will reap great rewards – including mental wellness, branding, financial readiness, college scholarships, and other program incentives. Therefore, significant contributions are expected from each participant. Before applying, please consider the following minimum requirements:
