Gown Town helps girls go to prom in style at no cost
LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - WASK radio stations B102.9 and K105 wanted to do something a little different to help members of the community.
"There's a lot of 5Ks, there's a lot of can drives and those are all great, but this is really something different that the community just responded tremendously," B102.9 Morning Host and Program Director Logan said.
That's why four years ago they started Gown Town, a program in place to help girls in high school get a prom dress free of charge.
"Prom dresses are expensive," K105 Morning Host and Operations Director Shamus. "It's expensive to go to prom and we figured that a lot of people had prom dresses in their closets that they probably weren't going to wear again so we thought what if people were to donate those dresses."
