Cinderella Dreams Project seeks prom gowns

It's a Cinderella story. You're invited to the big dance, but have nothing to wear. It happens, and not just in fairy tales. This year Q94 and the Midlothian Junior Woman's Club will play Fairy Godmother to girls who need a dress for their Prom night.

The Cinderella Dreams Project provides prom dresses for area high school girls, lifting the financial burden for those on a tight budget. Gowns and accessories are being collected at all county YMCAs through Mar. 23. Donated gowns should be from 2002 or more recent, new or like new, and dry-cleaned. Accessories should be in new or like-new condition.

Girls will be allowed to try on and select their favorite dress for free (a $5 donation is suggested) on Sat., Mar. 31 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. at the Midlothian YMCA, 737 Coalfield Rd. All girls will be helped on a first come, first served basis.
