Each girl is paired with a personal shopper volunteer who assists her in picking out the perfect gown. The Ruby Room was founded in 2002 by Nyla Bittermann (Jordan) and Kristen Corning. It all started with 8 volunteers working out of an office in Queen Anne and is now going strong on Capital Hill with over 100 volunteers.
