Prom Dress, Suit, and Dress Clothing ReSale This Saturday in Downtown Lemont
Hope and Friendship's 9th Annual- "Give that Prom Dress, Suit, and Dress Clothing a 2nd Night Out" this coming Saturday March 5th 9-12:30
I strongly believe everyone should have the opportunity to look in the mirror and feel beautiful.
Saturday's event was created with the hopes that we build the self esteem of many cinderellas and prince charmings.
This event was also created out of my excitement of celebrating when I find a bargain and have "scored" a WIN!
This coming Saturday March 5th, friends of Hope and Friendship will help to once again offer the 9th annual
Give that Dress a 2nd Night Out
This event is not just to supply those that need to shop for less but also for those who choose to shop for less.

This event is for:
1) Those that need the assistance of a voucher for a free prom dress, suit, dress clothing. Vouchers have been offered through the School Counselors, Pastors, Food Pantries... If you know of someone who is struggling financially and would benefit from a voucher for this event please email me and I will either offer the voucher through you or put their name on a list awaiting their visit on Saturday.
2) Those that choose to shop smart. Those, who like me, enjoy the "WIN" of finding a bargain. We have collected (thank you so very much to all of the generous friends who made this event possible!!!!) many, many, Prom Dresses, Men's Suits, Dress Clothing and accessories and all are available for a very low cost.
Money raised from this Event (from those who come to shop) will assist young friends within our arm's reach who need assistance with school year end events that their household budget simply cannot afford. (Graduation, 8th Grade Dinner Dance, 8th Grade Trip, Prom, year end fees/costs)
"Give that Dress a 2nd Night Out" not only helps YOU save money but helps ANOTHER young person within your community.
