Money raised from the Fire Hydrant 5K will help fund Project Prom.

Project Prom is about more than dresses and suits—it’s about dignity, confidence, and ensuring every student feels seen, celebrated, and included.

For many high school students, prom is a once-in-a-lifetime milestone. But for families facing financial challenges, the cost of formal attire and preparation can put this special moment out of reach. That’s where Project Prom steps in.

Through the generosity of our community, we provide students with everything they need to walk into their big night with confidence—beautiful dresses, sharp suits, shoes, and accessories, along with support for hair, makeup, and nail services. Every detail matters, because every student deserves to feel their absolute best.

Our support doesn’t stop at prom. We’re here for other meaningful milestones too, including homecoming, school formals, and graduation—moments that should be filled with pride, not stress.

When you donate to Project Prom, you’re not just giving clothing—you’re giving confidence, joy, and unforgettable memories. A dress becomes a smile. A suit becomes self-assurance. A small act of generosity becomes a life-long moment a student will never forget.

We gladly accept new or gently worn formal wear, shoes, and accessories. 

Together, we can make sure every student gets their moment to shine.

Help restock the Project Prom closet for the 2026–2027 school year.

Bring gently worn formal wear to the collection tent on race day.
