A police officer talks to the teens about Prom safety.
Though Cindy gives away free prom dresses, she also feels it’s a good time to educate and encourage the girls who participate. “Our event focuses on three things: drug and alcohol abuse awareness, safety on prom night and the importance of a college education.”
SMALL IDEA EQUALS BIG ACCOMPLISHMENT
Since starting Prom Queen FAD, Cindy has made it possible for 70 girls to attend their proms in style and with confidence. She hopes someday to expand her project to other high schools in Fort Worth, Texas, and to turn her project into a non-profit organization.

This was a great article! Wanting to donate a dress to this amazing cause! Thanks Rebecca for a wonderful article! Please let me know how I can donate for this year!
Great job, Cindy!!! I am so proud of you for this initiative! I donated all my dresses a few years ago for our LIP students because I know how important it is to enjoy the prom night. The prom is a night that will never come back and it symbolizes the culmination of an important part of a person’s life and education. No girl should have to choose not to go to her prom because she lacks a dress. Gracias, Rebecca, for writing about this great initiative!
