Wish Upon a Prom Invites Public Participation
Minneapolis
(03-07-07): -- The New Lawyers Section (NLS) of the
Hennepin County Bar Association (HCBA) sponsors
Wish Upon a Prom, to make local high school
students’ dreams come true. Local businesses and
individuals are invited to create magic for a Patrick
Henry High School student at her prom by partnering with
Wish Upon a Prom. The project
seeks new or gently used formal dresses, accessories,
and services.
A boutique will be set up at
the school to display the dresses, and NLS members will
assist the girls in choosing the perfect fit and color
for their personal styles. Gift certificates for
restaurants, accessories, and other donated items will
be given out following a raffle for the prizes. Also,
local hairdressers are asked to volunteer their time to
create beautiful fashions for each girl’s hair.
Businesses can donate
make-up, jewelry, and other accessories, and individuals
are welcome to give new or used dresses to help fulfill
each under-privileged teen’s dream.
Please drop off donations of
unused make-up, gently used accessories, and dresses at
the HCBA’s office on the third floor of the City Center
in downtown Minneapolis between April 2nd and
6th. Questions regarding the Wish Upon
a Prom project can be directed to Krista Dean at
(612) 335-1635.
