InnerAct Alliance and the UthMpact coalition are proud to continue the Project Prom effort, now in its 13th year, to provide free formal wear to deserving high school students and educate youth and parents about risky behaviors that may occur during prom and graduation.
InnerAct Alliance's Student Shopping Days will take place on Saturdays: February 8, February 22, March 8, March 29, and April 5, from 11am to 4pm, at the Project Prom Store at the Lakeland Square Mall, 3800 U.S. Highway 98 North in Lakeland (use entrance to the right of Dillards). Students with a Polk County School ID can sign a pledge to celebrate alcohol and drug-free and receive their dresses and suits at no cost.
UthMpact's goal is to promote a safe and fun Prom Night. Since 2013, over 5,500 prom ensembles have been provided at no cost to teens in Polk County. Community members may support the effort by donating gently-used dresses, men's suits, shoes, and accessories. Especially needed are women's dresses in sizes XS (0-3) and plus sizes (18+) and men's suits in smaller sizes, dress pants (waist 30-36), and dress shirts (all sizes). Donations may be dropped off at the Project Prom Store on shopping dates or at the InnerAct Alliance office (8:30am-4:30pm weekdays) at 621 S. Florida Avenue, in Lakeland.
