As a single parent, I had tears of joy when both of my daughters got free dresses from Operation Prom. I would have never been able to afford this for them. We are so grateful.

HOW WE MAKE AN IMPACT
The Operation Prom National Network, Inc.,
was founded in Yonkers, NY in 2005 to help
low-income students attend their prom by
providing free dresses and tuxedos. Each
school year, we collect and distribute prom
formal wear, as well as accessory items
such as shoes, undergarments, jewelry, and
bowties. Our goal is to ensure that each
student we serve receives the perfect prom
attire allowing them to feel confident and
empowered. In 2023, OPNN provided formal wear to over 1,000 students in Westchester County, and 4,000+ across the U.S.
GIVING OPPORTUNITIES
As a 100% volunteer driven organization, monetary gifts allow us to continue our mission to help students attend this rite of passage. Formal wear donations are accepted during the school year. The Operation Prom National Network, Inc. will be celebrating its 20th Anniversary with a special Prom Exhibition in March 2024 in Westchester County.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
• Volunteer to organize formal wear at our Mount Vernon office. • Volunteer at our Westchester County Center prom dress and
tuxedo distribution events.
