Project Prom Dress Taking Collections This Week

Prom can be one of high schoolers’ favorite and most fun experiences. But there’s no getting around that it can also be one of the most expensive.

The Menomonee Falls High School’s junior class and the Pass It On Network are helping to ensure cost is not the barrier for teens to make lifelong high school memories. The second annual donation and distribution program called Project Prom Dress kicks off this month.

Gently used, clean prom and formal dresses are collected and distributed through the program, and this year a fashion show has been added.

All collection and distribution will be done at Thomas Jefferson School. Collection dates are:

• Wednesday, March 7, 6-8 p.m.
• Saturday, March 10, 10 a.m. to  2 p.m.

The Fashion Show/Prom Expo will be held from 2-4 p.m. Sunday, April 1, at Thomas Jefferson.

Dresses are free but a goodwill donation or cans of food for the Falls Area Food Pantry are welcome.

Distribution dates are:

• At the Fashion Show on April 1, 3-4 p.m.
• Wednesday, April 4, 6-8 p.m.
• Saturday, April 21, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
