Junior Auxiliary Prom Closet to offer donated gowns to community

Prom season is coming up, and the Junior Auxiliary of Biloxi-Ocean Springs is getting ready for its annual Prom Closet.

The event offers girls a chance to shop through donated prom gowns and accessories, and purchase them at a discounted price.

This year’s prom closet will offer a variety of long and short dresses. All long dresses are $15. Short dresses are $10. Shoppers will be able to find shoes and accessories to match the perfect gown.

This annual event helps fund Junior Auxiliary’s other community projects.

Co-chair Tessy Lambert says,

“Every year the dresses change, but the reason never does. It’s always to bring some relief to families in our community. This is just one of the several projects that Junior Auxiliary participates in. If anyone would like to learn more, they can always check out all of our projects at JABOS.org.”

The Prom Closet is still accepting donations. You can reach out to the Biloxi-Ocean Springs Junior Auxiliary to help.

Mark your calendars for February 11, when the Prom Closet will be open at In the Zone from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
