Burien, WALocal News

The Highline Schools Foundation has initiated a dress collection drive for its 'Project PROMise,' which provides free prom dresses to students in need. This program is designed to eliminate the financial barriers that prevent some students from attending prom, allowing them to participate in this significant high school event. Community members are invited to donate gently used dresses at various drop-off locations. The project aims to empower local youth and ensure they have equal opportunities to celebrate milestones with their peers. The Foundation believes that every student deserves the chance to feel special on prom night, regardless of their financial situation.

This initiative also encourages community involvement, fostering a supportive environment for local families. The collection drive not only benefits students but also promotes a culture of giving within the community. By participating, donors contribute to a meaningful cause that enhances the high school experience for many.
