Go 4 It: Belle of the Ball dress drive seeks donations for Detroit prom

Belle of the Ball, founded by Wayne County Commissioner Alisha Bell, is hosting a one-day prom dress drive to provide gowns to students who cannot afford them. The initiative, which has been aiding prom dreams for 18 years, welcomes donations of all sizes and styles, emphasizing the quality and up-to-date nature of the dresses. Participants like Faith Marshall and volunteers Soummer and Ray Crawford highlight the emotional impact of the event, where teens find their perfect dress, often bringing smiles and tears of joy. The program, open to all without financial criteria, seeks to increase its inventory, particularly in sizes 12 and up, and encourages community support through donations.
