| LA's Prom Closet |
|
| LA’s Prom Closet, a non-profit organization that was established in 2008, began with the goal of celebrating the accomplishments of young women graduating from high school. The 100% volunteer based organization focuses on the act of empowering the young women who are referred to the organization’s “Dress to Remember” event. Attending the event is not only about receiving a free dress and accessories, but providing the opportunity for young women to go to workshops where each student can learn information on various topics such as: health & wellness, etiquette and establishing life-long goals while networking with other strong women in the community who are from various career fields.
In a matter of three years, the organization has tripled the number of students who were able to be served to over 200 students in our 2010 event. We expect with each year the referrals sent in could likely double or triple from year to year and we would love to serve as many students as possible. In preparation for the 2011 prom season we now face the challenge of finding the funding needed to hold larger events or multiple events. To be able to expand our event in the future LA’s Prom Closet is now in need of monetary donations.
Proceeds for the Race to Empower Young Women & Celebrate Accomplishments will help cover expenses such as event venue fees, rental truck fees for transporting dresses to events, purchasing racks and dressing room equipment for use in events, and purchasing additional formal attire that has not been donated by our generous dress donors.
