Best Answer

Debutante balls or cotillions as they are sometimes called main purpose is to raise funds for the host organization, which is usually a non-profit. Often the young ladies are taught proper etiquette and may be exposed to local public figures or celebrities during the ceremony. Some cotillions or debutante balls offer college scholarships for which the girls must compete. In todays society, debutante balls, cotillons and coming out parties aren't valued as much more that a networking opportunity or more common as a fundraiser. They can be fun for girls who would not otherwise have an opportunity to dress in a nice gown and interact with public figures.
