Q. My friend needs to get a dress for prom - can I bring them with me to get a dress too?

A. As long as your friend attends high school and also registers on Eventbrite for the same timeslot, you can shop together! Remember, each teen participant must sign up individually to attend!

Q. Who can volunteer?

A. Giveaway volunteers must be over 18. Set-up and tear-down volunteers may be under 18 as long as they're accompanied by a parent or guardian.
