Operation Prom Celebrates 21 Years of Providing Free Prom Attire

Founded in 2005, Operation Prom National Network, Inc. is a dedicated nonprofit organization that has been making dreams come true for students across the United States by providing free prom dresses and tuxedos to those in need. This year marks a significant milestone for the organization as it celebrates 21 years of service, coinciding with an exceptional number of events slated for the prom season in ten different states.

The need for affordable prom attire has never been more critical, especially given the increasing costs associated with attending prom. The organization reports a significant rise in demand for its services, highlighting the financial burden many students face when preparing for this monumental event. Noel D'Allacco, the Founder and President of Operation Prom, emphasized the importance of their initiative: “Our organization helps eliminate the financial stress of prom and empowers students to celebrate their educational achievements alongside their peers.”

Locations and Events

Teens looking for the perfect attire can find free dresses and tuxedos in locations including:

• - New York (Metro NYC, Westchester County)
• - Connecticut (Hartford)
• - New Jersey (Jersey City)
• - Pennsylvania (Philadelphia)
• - Georgia (Baconton)
• - Kansas (Leavenworth)
• - Indiana (Indianapolis)
• - California (San Diego)
• - Louisiana (New Orleans)

With the continued support from corporate partners, local retailers, and individuals donating gently-used formal wear, Operation Prom is well-equipped to handle the increased demand this prom season. Last year, the nonprofit successfully distributed over 6,000 items of formal wear and anticipates an even greater number this year.

Community Involvement and Donations

The organization heavily relies on community involvement to stock its events. Donations of dresses, tuxedos, suits, jewelry, cosmetics, and other prom accessories are still being accepted in numerous locations. This community effort ensures that students can find stylish and appropriate attire without financial strain.
