Every year I read about a local charity looking for gently used prom dresses that they, in turn, give to low income students wishing to attend their school prom. Its not a disaster relief situation but its still a worth while cause if you have a dress that you'll never wear again. They also take wedding dresses to give to low income brides.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
