 g for the community’s help in providing donations of dresses and accesso
 ries\,” said Devra Helffrich\, a founder of the St. Andrew Prom Closet\,
  which was created to provide a unique shopping experience for young ladie
 s who because of finances would be unable to attend prom. “Start the New
  Year with a clean closet and bring us your gently used dresses as well as
  shoes\, jewelry\, and handbags! We also have an option to purchase items 
 for the girls through our Amazon shopping link\, which will be on the Prom
  Closet website. Each year\, we depend on donations from individuals\, loc

  girl’s prom ensemble.”\n\nFor shoppers\, appointments are required to

 pots per each 90-minute time slot. \n\nProm Closet\, a service of the St. 
 Andrew Methodist Women\, provides prom attire to approximately 1\,000 high

 e students from Germany\, Poland\, Switzerland\, and Thailand. A total of 
 941 volunteers came together last year to help make prom dreams come true.
  \n\n“For the St. Andrew Methodist Women\, Prom Closet is a year-round l
 abor of love\,” said Rev. Arthur Jones\, senior pastor\, St. Andrew. “
 This dedicated group of women\, combined with the many volunteers who make
  it happen each year\, know its value. Each volunteer strives to provide a
 n uplifting experience by letting the young ladies know they are loved\, a
 nd they are beautiful. The Prom Closet has grown into such an incredible o
 utreach program in North Texas and beyond because of the love and hard wor
 k of our volunteers. Words are not enough to thank them for going above an
 d beyond each year to make prom dreams come true.”\n\nAll donations may
