40 Years-40 Stories | Story #13 Project Prom - Making Dreams Come True!
Springtime means the countdown to Prom is underway! Unfortunately for some teens, expenses associated with attending this milestone social event may be out of reach. InnerAct Alliance and the UthMpact coalition are proud to collaborate on Project Prom, now in its 14th year, to provide FREE formal wear to high school students and educate youth and parents about risky behaviors that may occur during prom and graduation.
The Impact
Since 2013, over 6,000 prom ensembles have been provided at no cost to Polk teens! UthMpact also offers Project HOCO in the fall to provide formalwear for Homecoming!
