*HELP*NOT ENOUGH DRESSES*MAY HAVE TO CANCEL* 100 Dresses needed by Monday *

Hey lovely ladies (and gentlemen)-

We all remember how important prom was. Unfortunately many of the girls on my friend Spring's reservation, the Cheyenne River Sioux Indian Reservation in South Dakota, do not have resources for Prom.

So the Teen Center on the reservation started "Passion for Fashion" where the collect dresses, then the girls get to "shop" for Prom.


Unfortunately there have not been enough donations this year, and they may have to cancel. They need to know by the end of this week if they can collect 100 more dresses. So if you can help, please RSVP with specifics.

Please forward to others (especially college and high school gals who may have some goodies from last year.)

NEEDED:
*formal dresses (new or gently used. all sizes, up to 24)
*formal shoes
*make up
*accessories
*shoes
*evening bags

DEADLINES:

*MAILED BY: MONDAY MARCH 24

*PROM "SHOPPING": Week of March 31

I tried and I guess it got rejected, super ugly outfits are apparently more interesting... such is life.

My sister and I found 4 dresses, a small hand bag, nail polish and throwing in some slips if they are needed. We are sending them out tomorrow from Wilmington, Delaware.

I think I might have at least ten promised so far. Any idea about how the response is going?
