The Meredith College Fashion Association is collecting gently used, recently worn formal wear to be given to high school girls who cannot afford a new gown for their prom.
Organizers request that donations include only evening wear from the last five years. All donations are tax deductible.
Donations can be brought to 204 Martin at Meredith College, Monday - Friday, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. (Please note Meredith College offices are closed Friday, March 8 for spring break).
The last day to drop of donations is Friday, March 22, 2013.
The dresses will be given out on Saturday, March 23 and Sunday, March 24 at North Hills Mall as part of Meredith College’s annual Cinderella Project.
For more information, email Meredith College Professor of Human Environmental Sciences Diane Ellis at ellisdi@meredith.edu.
