For the second year in a row, Montgomery County, Maryland’s, Department of Recreation will hold the “Praisner’s Prom Dress” giveaway event.
Is there a dress or suit in your closet that you haven’t worn in years? Maybe it doesn’t fit anymore or maybe you want to pare down your wardrobe.
You could clear out your closet and do good at the same time by donating your clothes so that a high school student can look amazing at prom.
After collecting gently used dresses, suits and accessories, the department will hold a “shopping” event at the Marilyn Praisner Community Recreation Center in Burtonsville on April 15. Students can select an outfit free of charge, and all they need is their student ID.
