My Sister's Closet Seeks to Make Prom Dreams Come True

In its fifth year, the program collects and gives away free prom dresses.

For five years, has collected gently used, special occasion dresses, handbags, shoes and jewelry to teen girls in need of dresses for prom.  

The Azusa Unified School District, Azusa Pacific University, the Azusa-Glendora Soroptimist’s, Assistance League of Covina Valley and the Canyon City Foundation are collaborating to reduce the financial stress by providing these dresses at no cost to any young lady who plans on attending her high school prom. 

Silvana Cavazos, program coordinator for the Azusa Unified School Districts Family Resource Center created this program to help girls participate in all the activities that make their high school experience fun without worrying about how they would pay for a dress.
