The Enchanted Closet is a Stonecrest, Georgia 501(c)(3), founded in 2003, that provides free prom dresses, shoes, and jewelry to financially challenged teen girls across 14 metro-Atlanta counties. Its annual Prom Dress Giveaway is held each March, and the organization says it has outfitted more than 9,500 Atlanta-area girls. Donated gowns and accessories are accepted year-round, with collection events ramping up ahead of the spring giveaway. Teens shop with volunteer help for a complete outfit at no cost. Visit enchantedcloset.org for donation drop-off details and the current giveaway date.
Mar is when The Enchanted Closet runs its giveaway, meaning the window when students shop for a dress, not necessarily a donation deadline. Formalwear programs commonly accept donations year round even though they distribute in a narrow spring window, and the most useful time to donate is right after prom, when dresses are current and in good condition. Confirm intake timing with the program before you drive over.
