Hello 4-H Families, Club Managers, and Leaders,
We are excited to officially kick off the 4-H Project Prom Campaign: Dress with Confidence, a countywide community service initiative supporting students in our community who may need assistance securing prom attire.
We are inviting all 4-H clubs to participate by donating gently used or new prom dresses. Through this campaign, 4-H members have the opportunity to serve their community while supporting an important milestone in the lives of fellow youth.
Why This Campaign Matters:
Prom is a memorable experience for many students, and access to formal attire should not be a barrier. This campaign helps ensure students can attend prom feeling confident and supported, while reinforcing the values of service, leadership, and generosity that define 4-H.
4-H Project Alignment:
The Project Prom Campaign supports:
- Community service and civic engagement
- The 4-H Clothing & Textiles Project
- Sustainability and clothing stewardship
- Youth leadership and teamwork
How Your Club Can Participate
- Collect gently used or new prom dresses (all sizes and styles welcome)
- Host a club or community dress drive
- Encourage members to promote the campaign at school or within their community
- Count participation toward community service hours and 4-H record books
Thank you for helping us make a positive impact and for continuing to live the 4-H motto, “To Make the Best Better.”
Together, we can help ensure every student has the opportunity to shine on prom night.
