For many students, prom is more than a dance—it’s a milestone.
It marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another, a moment where they can celebrate their accomplishments, friendships, and the journey ahead. But in today’s economy, when so many families are facing financial strain, the excitement of prom can quickly turn into stress and disappointment. The cost of a dress, tuxedo, shoes, or accessories—items that may seem small—can become an overwhelming barrier.

That’s why Operation Prom's programs and support matters.
When a student receives a free prom dress or tuxedo, they’re not just receiving clothing. They’re receiving confidence. They’re receiving the chance to show up and feel proud, included, and seen. The right outfit can empower a student to walk into prom feeling like they belong—because they do.

Your generosity helps ensure that financial hardship never stands in the way of a milestone moment. With your support, we can continue to provide gowns, suits, accessories, and more to students who deserve to feel celebrated, beautiful, and confident as they step into one of the most memorable nights of their high school experience.

Together, we can make the 2026 prom season unforgettable for every student—no matter their financial circumstances.
