TOPIC: Cinderella Project

The Cinderella Project is a community outreach program for young ladies sponsored by Hospice Care. Prom dresses, shoes and accessories are to be sold to local high school girls who want to go to the prom, but may not be able to afford it. The dresses will be sold for as little as $5.00 (usually no more than $20.00).

The Cinderella Project Fashion show and sale will be on Saturday, April 4th at the Middletown Mall. The fashion show will begin at 1 pm with the sale immediately following.

Hospice Care is looking for models from Marion County’s high schools to participate in the fashion show. Please call Kim Mitchell at 304-212-8345 to refer students to model the dresses. Hair stylists and make up artists will be provided to help get the young ladies ready for the show. Models will be able to purchase the dress they wear for just $5.00, so please approach your students who may have the greatest need.

If anyone has prom dresses, shoes and accessories they would like to donate, please contact Kim Riley at Hospice Care (304-864-0884 / 1-800-350-1161) or drop off donations at the Fairmont Hospice Care Office, 1406 Country Club Road. Donations of door prizes are also welcome for the attendees.
