Dream Dress Giveaway Winners
Hear the inspirational stories from the recipients of Robin's Oscar dresses.
June 29, 2009 — -- It was a party like none other, so Robin Roberts had to wear just the right dress for the Oscars bash this year. While she had some gorgeous choice to pick from, she needed your help to pick between her final three.
More than 7,000 of you wrote in with your opinions before the winner was announced. After the party, though, "Good Morning America" asked viewers to send in stories about people who deserved to have the final three dresses for themselves so Robin could pass the joy along.
Well you answered, and here are the three lucky recipients.
Down in Charlotte, N.C., Jackie Stinson sent "GMA" a letter about her 16-year-old daughter Olivia, describing how "from a very early age" Olivia worked to make other people's lives better.
A leader in her community, Olivia helps those in need by working at local food banks, shelters and nursing homes.
"Because of your giving spirit, I wanted to be able to give something back to you," Jackie wrote about her daughter. "You are an inspiration to me and so many others."
After Olivia was chosen to receive one of Robin's dresses, "GMA" mailed it to Jackie so she could surprise her daughter.
"I don't even know what to say, I'm speechless," Olivia said when she go the dress. "Putting the dress on for the first time, it was like magic. And wow, it just felt really great."
