Charitable Prom Organizations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Charitable Prom Organizations are springing up all across the United States. Organizations in several states are giving away prom dresses to high school girls that may not be able to otherwise afford them. One notable organization, The Glass Slipper Project [1], has collected thousands of dresses for Chicago area girls since its inception. The project is discussed on the website for the Oprah show [2] and in the Chicago Tribune [3]. Similar organizations across the country include Operation Fairy Dust [4] in New York, the Princess Project [5] in San Francisco, and The Perfect Prom Project [6] at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

The following listing of prom projects going on across the country was compiled from Youth Noise[7] After Prom.org [8] and The Glass Slipper Project:
