SAVANNAH, Ga. () – The Savannah Jewish Federation is launching the “Race To The Prom” project. It is a donation drive from now until April 10, 2024, to help a girl’s dream come true.
“For many prom season, which should be a joyous celebration of accomplishment, becomes a stressful one for many young women. Not having the resources to obtain a dress or shoes, not to mention hair, makeup, and accessories, can create enormous anxiety. Through your generous support, we can assist these young women who are deserving. Help us make every girl feel beautiful and worthwhile on her special prom day,” Savannah Jewish Federation.
The federation is asking for donations of prom dresses and accessories such as:
• Formal and Semi-Formal Dresses: short, long, sparkly or not. Must be clean and in good condition (no stains or tears, please!).
• Accessories: purses, wraps, jackets, shoes, etc. Must be clean and in good condition.
• Costume Jewelry
• Unused Cosmetics/Beauty/Fragrance Samples
