Donate old bmaid/prom dresses!

Hey ladies -

The charity org myself and a few other ladies on here volunteer with (www.wgirls.org) is hosting a prom dress drive for underpriviledged girls who cannot afford to go to prom. We are providing dresses, makeup and jewelry but we need your help!

Do you have any old formal dresses (can be old prom or bmaid) that you'd like to donate?

Dresses can be dropped off Monday - Friday from 8:30am - 5:30pm at the Westfield South Shore Mall in Bayshore at the management office (located in the IHOP hallway) though Friday, April 1st.

There will be a drive on Saturday, April 2nd from 12pm - 6pm also at the South Shore Mall in Bay shore in the area in front of Lord and Taylor (we will have a table set up).

Please FM if you have any questions!

Thanks!

I can't make it there at all, I don't get out of work until 5. Is there anywhere else they take donations?

Thanks everyone for interest!

Anyone in Nassau--would you be able to drop off at Verdis of Westbury this Sunday? We will be at the NW luncheon and will be able to bring dresses back into the city to the drop-off locations near us!
