Every girl deserves to go to prom and every dress deserves a second chance
Since 2015 Prom Angels CT has been collecting new and gently used prom dresses, bridesmaids gowns and other accessories. Each year Prom Angels CT host pop up shopping boutiques for high school students in Connecticut. Each of our event gives students the opportunity to shop for formal wear including the dress, shoes and accessories needed for their prom or other formal events at no cost to them or their families.
Our mission is to provide a fun boutique-like atmosphere where students can shop from our enormous collection. And it is all FREE. Our boutiques brings together volunteers from all over the state and also brings together other small businesses and community organizations who not only donate their time and services, but they offer insight on community service, college, job placement and so much more.
Students must sign up to attend our boutique events. Proof of income is not necessary at this time. Students must preregister for all the events online. A student ID must be presented at the event. We have the right to turn away anyone. All dresses and accessories are donated, therefore sizes cannot be guaranteed. Some donations may require alterations or dry cleaning.
Unfortunately these services are not provided by Prom Angels but their may be discounts available. Each event offers a personal shopper for every student. All participants receive a swag bag filled with samples and discounts from our local supporters. Prom Angels events are open to all students in Connecticut.
Donations are accepted. We have designated drop off locations for donations.
We are looking for:
-
New and gently used dresses, including prom and bridesmaids styles. (No stains, rips or tares)
-
Jewelry, formal and costume
-
Shoes, shawls and purses
Prom Angels CT also acceptcs discounts and/or complimentary beauty related services, such as hair or nail salon gift certificates for our free giveaways, as well as samples of cosmetics and prom essentials.
