Prom Dress & Tuxedo Drive

Ocean County Library is seeking New or Gently Used "Teen Friendly" Formal Attire for their annual Prom Dress Giveaway.

It is approaching that wonderful time of year: Spring Dance Season. Ocean County Library hosts a Prom Dress and Tuxedo Giveaway every Spring. Proms are expensive and not every teen has the ability to purchase formal attire. Please look into your closet and consider donating a formal dress or tuxedo and give a student in need the opportunity to join their friends at a memorable Spring Dance.

We are collecting NEW, CLEAN & GENTLY USED: Teen styled Prom, Party Dresses, Evening Gowns and Tuxedos. Prom dresses in all sizes from 0 to 30 are needed.
Please note we can only accept:

· New and gently-used, prom-appropriate dresses that are modern (2005+).
