Alfred State - The sisters of Delta Chi Omega (DCO) and the Center for Civic Leadership are excited to announce that the annual Project Prom Dress Extravaganza will be held April 5 at Alfred State. The event will be held in the Small Event Space (310) in the Student Leadership Center between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Project Prom Dress is a student-driven initiative and is the passion and philanthropy of the sorority sisters of DCO. Annually, the sisters collaborate with individuals and local bridal shops to collect new and gently used gowns, shoes, and accessories.
Delta Chi Omega accepts dresses of all sizes in good condition. They are specifically looking for modern dresses featuring styles from the past ten years.
“Every girl deserves to feel beautiful on their prom night,” commented Delta Chi Omega Assistant Philanthropy Chairman Aubrea Broker. “We are so excited to help make that happen for girls in the community. We can't wait for them to find the dress of their dreams."
Director of Global Engagement and Civic Wellbeing Cyan Corwine is excited to continue this event for the community. “Supporting Delta Chi Omega with their Project Prom Dress initiative has been very rewarding. It’s a joy when community members find and walk away with something they love and we look forward to welcoming everyone to the Project Prom Dress Extravaganza this April.”
If a community member has a dress or accessories they would like to donate for the event they can drop it off in the DCO Leadership Suite (Student Leadership Center Room 302) or contact either Corwine (CorwinCY@alfredstate.edu) or Broker (BrokerAM@alfredstate.edu) to arrange a time to meet.
