Princess Bridals of Huntington Village decided to make sure prom is a memorable experience for girls who might not have the money to keep up with the glitz and glamour of high school proms.

The owner of Princess Bridals of Huntington Village, Charles M. Prokop Jr., and assemblyman Chad Lupinacci helped donate over 30 prom dresses to the Prom Gown Assistance Program.

Prom Gown Assistance Program provides gowns and accessories free of charge to girls who can’t afford the high costs of prom. From the dresses to the afterparty, proms can leave a big dent in your wallet.

Prokop and Lupinacci donated new and lightly-used prom attire, including dresses, bridesmaids’ dresses, evening gowns, shoes, handbags and jewelry.

Girls all across Long Island will be able to enjoy their proms thanks to Princess Bridals of Huntington Village, Villanova University Alumni Association, the Long Island Volunteer Center, high school guidance counselors, at-risk youth agencies, group homes and church outreaches.

“I look forward to continuing this tradition in the future,” Lupinacci said.
