The Princess Project at H.O.P.E.

Calling all Local High School Students Attending Prom!

We are happy to help in spreading the word about an amazing local resource from our friends at H.O.P.E.—because every teen deserves to feel like a prince, princess (or royal!) at Prom.

The Princess Project offers over 300 dresses and a limited number of suit jackets and tuxes, all available to borrow free of charge for high school students attending prom this year.  Appointment booking has already begun, and the appointments will run April 22 through May. Everything is lent out on a short-term basis with the simple agreement that items are returned clean and on time. The student must have a sponsor such as a teacher or guardian who can be contacted.

Last year, H.O.P.E. helped 22 students attend prom in style—let’s help spread the word so even more teens can benefit this year!
