For girls, the junior and senior prom means many things, but it’s a lot about the dress. And if you can’t afford one, it means you may not go. That’s where the Bella Project comes in: to provide all female students with a valid high school ID card a chance to collect a dress, shoes, accessories, and beauty products for prom for free!
The Junior League of Honolulu will host the Bella Boutique on Saturday, Feb 25, at the Honolulu Design Center from 10 am to 2 pm.
“This is a great opportunity for high school students to pick out a fabulous dress for free so that they can attend a school formal that they might not have otherwise been able to” says Valerie Schmidt, the Junior League’s Bella event coordinator, “It’s like we volunteers get to play the fairy godmother - dressing up the Bella’s of the ball!”
High school girls can sign up at thebellaprojecthawaii@gmail.com. Include your name and your 1st, 2nd, & 3rd time preferences. Time slots are available in 15-minute intervals beginning at 10 am.
The Junior League of Honolulu is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and improving communities through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers.
