Polk County, FL – With Fall football games in full
swing that means it’s time to celebrate Homecoming! For the past several years,
teen leaders from UthMpact have successfully coordinated Project Prom to
provide formal wear to deserving high school students, and now, UthMpact is
proud to present the second year of Project Hoco to offer free dresses and suits
to teens who promise to make smart, healthy, and safe decisions on the night of
homecoming.
Student Shopping Days for Project Hoco will be held this Saturday, September 17 and next Saturday, September
24, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at the
InnerAct Alliance office located at 621 South Florida Avenue, in Lakeland. Students
with a Polk County School ID can sign a Project Hoco Pledge to celebrate drug-free and
receive their dresses and suits for FREE!
Community members
are also asked to support this effort by donating gently used dresses, shoes,
purses, jewelry, men’s suits, ties, and other
accessories. Formal wear donations may be dropped off at the InnerAct Alliance
office on either of the shopping dates or on weekdays from 8:30 am – 4:30 pm.
UthMpact’s goal is promote a fun and
safe Homecoming night. For more information, please contact Samantha Barwig, UthMpact
