Urban Chic’s First Annual Dress Drive to Benefit Once Upon A Prom

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

On March 27, 2008 join the co-founders of Once Upon A Prom at Urban Chic (Georgetown location only) for a dress drive-shopping happy hour.  From 5 pm to 8 pm receive 30% off purchases when you donate a dress.  Please only donate dresses that will make girls feel fabulous—a good rule of thumb is 2000 to present.

Co-founders Katie Tarbox, Ashley Taylor, and Sarah Elder founded Once Upon A Prom, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, to provide prom dresses to young women who otherwise could not afford them. 
Can’t make it to the event?  Drop off a dress at any Urban Chic location March 24-31, and receive 20% off your purchase.

All dresses received will go to Once Upon A Prom’s dress drive in May.  At this event girls from area schools (listed below) will choose their prom dresses.

Ballou Senior High School
Benjamin Stoddert Middle School and High School
Westlake High School
Friendship Edison High School
Dunbar High School
Bladensburg High School
McKinley Technology High School
Maya Angelou Public Charter High
Hyde Leadership Public Charter School

Think back to your prom—didn’t it seem like the most important event?  Help make a prom dream come true!
