Our Giveaway cannot happen without our hundreds of amazing volunteers - from setting up to greeting students to helping select dresses and accessories to alterations and so much more. We need your help! Shifts are available Thursday, March 10-Sunday, March 13. Bring a friend and lend a hand!

Just a few days left for students to apply for this year's Dream Scholarships. We are offering three scholarships this year totaling $5,000, to female high school seniors attending school in Oregon or Washington. One scholarship, for $1,000, will be awarded to a student entering a trade school, another scholarship, for $1,500, will be awarded to a student entering a community college, and one for $2,500 will be awarded to a student entering a four-year college/university. For more information and for the scholarship application, visit our website.

Since not all students can easily get to the March Prom Dress Giveaway, we are again offering another way for dresses to reach high schools. The Sharing the Love program donates prom dresses directly to high schools or nonprofit organizations in Oregon and Washington for distribution to its students. Applications for Sharing the Love will be accepted through Friday, March 4. For more information and the application, visit our website.

Have an extra hour here and there? We are building our list of people who are able to pick up dresses at our Drop Off Sites, particularly in Portland and the greater metro area. Add your name to our list. We will email you when we have pick ups and then arrange a time to have you deliver the dresses to our Clubhouse. If you're interested, email info@abbyscloset.org and let us know!

We are currently seeking volunteers to create cards with positive messages to attach to the dresses. The students love finding these notes on each dress. We need thousands of cards with color and creativity. If you're interested in getting the details to help, please contact Lois at lois@abbyscloset.org.
