Donations Needed for Prom Dress Pop-Up
Prom season is fast approaching, and we need your help to make sure that all high school students have access to formal wear for their prom. Do you have gently used formal or prom dresses, jewelry, or formal shoes looking for a new home? Donate them to our prom dress pop-up shop and help local students find the perfect look for their big night.
Donations will be accepted at our Sunshine Supper space (1632 W. Main St. in Sun Prairie) on Tuesday, April 22 and Thursday, April 24 from 12-6 p.m. Students in need can then shop for a dress on Friday, April 25, from 10 a.m. to noon or 2-7 p.m. Spread the word and help make prom unforgettable for all!
