Project Prom is a mission to donate prom dresses, tuxedos and accessories to students who cannot afford their formal wear for prom.
This project is to honor Bella Zoe Dakis, a vibrant young teen who gave her prom dress to a fellow student in need, the night before she passed away, “Because she needs it more than I do.”
Her mother, Susan, created this foundation to keep Bella’s legacy alive, spreading kindness and joy just as she would have wanted.
They are looking for volunteers to help with : set-up, check-in, attendants, personal shoppers, dressing room attendants and clothes runners, check-out, take-down.
You can also donate dresses, tuxedos or suits, shoes, accessories, etc. If you want to donate clothes or accessories, let me know so I can give you directions.
