Donate Your Gown Post-Prom

What will you do with your gown after prom? Consider donating it to someone in need! The Minneapolis area has several organizations that accept gown, shoe and accessory donations year-round, and they give them to high school girls on a need-basis.

Check with your school counselor, at your place of worship, or with community leaders to see if any place exists in your area. If not, consider starting your own!
