The HPU Social Work Club begins their annual Cinderella Project Prom Dress Giveaway on Friday, at Howard Payne’s Girling Center for Social Justice located on Austin Avenue next to the Academy of Freedom.   Cinderella Project hours are Friday from 4:00-6:00 p.m. and Saturday from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.

Through this annual project, HPU’s social work club helps girls who cannot afford to purchase prom dresses find the dress to make them feel like Cinderella.  As always, many dresses in various styles and sizes are available to choose from.  The program is offered to any girl from Brown or the surrounding counties who cannot afford a prom dress.

Donations of formal dresses each year come from students, faculty and staff of HPU.

The HPU Social Work Club consists of over a dozen members who are social work majors.  Pictured are 2013 club members who helped with last year’s Cinderella Project.
